Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Victoria, who was the Queen of the United Kingdom and the Empress of India, and it features an image of her on one side and an image of Ram Singhji, the ruler of the Princely state of Bundi, on the other side. This coin is a unique example of the blending of British and Indian cultures during the colonial era.
