Interesting fact
The ½ Pice 1219 (1804) coin from Bombay Presidency (British India) made of Copper weighing 3.23 g is interesting because it was issued during a time when India was still under British rule, and it features a unique blend of Indian and British design elements. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of King George III, while the reverse side features a depiction of a lion standing on a crown, which was a common symbol of British power and authority. The coin's design was likely intended to symbolize the unity between India and Britain, and it is a rare and valuable collector's item today.
