Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Shah Jahan Begam, who was the first female ruler of the Princely state of Bhopal, and one of the few female rulers in Indian history. She ruled from 1885 to 1889, and her reign was marked by several progressive reforms, including the establishment of a girls' school and a hospital. The coin is a testament to her legacy and an important part of Indian numismatic history.
