Comment
The coin was minted in Kashmir and circulated in sikh empireInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Paisa coin from the Princely State of Jammu and Kashmir is that it was minted during the reign of Maharaja Ranbir Singh, who ruled the state from 1878 to 1892. The coin features an image of the Maharaja on one side and a depiction of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi on the other. The use of a Hindu deity on a coin minted by a Muslim ruler highlights the religious diversity and tolerance that existed in the Princely State of Jammu and Kashmir during that time.
