½ Rupee - Edward VII [Raghubir Singhji]

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Edward VII, who was the King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions from 1901 until his death in 1910. The coin features an image of the king on one side and the Bundi state emblem on the other. The Bundi state was one of the princely states of India, which were semi-autonomous regions ruled by local monarchs under the suzerainty of the British Raj. The ½ Rupee coin was a standard circulation coin during the time and was made of silver, weighing 5.6 grams.
