Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change in India, as the country was transitioning from a British colony to an independent nation. The coin features the image of Queen Victoria, who ruled the British Empire at the time, but also includes the name of the Princely state of Bundi, indicating the coin's connection to the local ruler and the diverse political landscape of India during this period.
