- Note: Named after Toka Raj who operated the Aurangabad Mint under a state license from about 1830.- This is not Elichpur Feudatory but Aurangabad
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during a time of great turmoil in India, specifically during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, also known as the Sepoy Mutiny. This coin was minted in the Hyderabad-Elichpur Feudatory, which was a princely state of Hyderabad, and it features the year 1273-1276 in the Islamic calendar, which corresponds to 1857-1860 in the Gregorian calendar. Despite the tumultuous period in which it was minted, this coin remains a valuable piece of history for collectors and historians alike.
