Interesting fact
The ½ Paisa coin from the Princely state of Baroda, issued during the reign of Sayaji Rao III (1937-1948) and made of copper, features an interesting fact. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it has a relatively low mintage, with only 10,000 coins produced. This scarcity makes it a prized collector's item among numismatists, particularly those interested in the history of the Indian princely states.
