Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Maharaja Yagya Narayan Singh, who was known for his efforts to modernize and develop the princely state of Kishangarh. Despite being a small state, Kishangarh was known for its rich cultural heritage and artistic traditions, and the coin reflects this history and cultural significance.
