Interesting fact
The ⅛ Rupee coin from the Princely state of Tonk, minted during the reign of George V (Muhammad Sa'adat Ali Khan) between 1933-1935, is an interesting piece of history. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was made of silver, which was a significant departure from the usual metals used for coinage at that time, such as copper, nickel, or bronze. The use of silver in this coin's minting process speaks to the rich history and cultural significance of the Princely state of Tonk, and the value placed on this precious metal in the region.
