Interesting fact

The ½ Rupee coin from the Princely state of Kishangarh, issued in 1902 during the reign of Edward VII, features a unique regal style design, with the portrait of the king on one side and the image of Madan Singh, the ruler of Kishangarh, on the other. This coin is notable for being one of the few coins from the Indian princely states to feature a double portrait design.
