Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Dokdo 1873-1874 (1817-1818) from Princely state of Kutch (Indian princely states) made of Copper weighing 6.3 g is that it features a unique blend of Indian and European design elements. The coin's obverse features a depiction of a prince, likely the ruler of Kutch at the time, while the reverse features a stylized representation of a lion, which was a common motif in European heraldry. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between India and Europe during the 19th century.
