Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Shah Jahan Begam, who was the first female ruler of the Princely state of Bhopal. She ruled from 1885 to 1890, and her reign was marked by several progressive reforms, including the establishment of a girls' school and a hospital. The coin is a testament to her legacy and the history of the Princely state of Bhopal.
