Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in India. The Princely state of Kishangarh was one of the many princely states that existed in India during the British colonial era. The coin was minted during the reign of Maharaja Sardar Singh, who ruled Kishangarh from 1902 to 1938. This period saw significant political and social changes in India, including the rise of the Indian independence movement and the eventual independence of India from British rule in 1947. Despite the turmoil of this time, the coin remains a testament to the rich cultural and economic heritage of the princely states of India.
