Interesting fact
The ½ Paisa coin from the Princely state of Sailana, issued in 1937, features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the usual symbols or emblems, it depicts a portrait of Dule Singh, the ruler of Sailana, in a traditional Indian attire. This makes it a distinctive and rare coin among the Indian princely states' currencies.
