Interesting fact

The 1 Falus coin from the Princely state of Malerkotla is interesting because it was one of the few coins issued by the princely states of India that were not British-influenced. The coin's design and inscriptions are in Urdu and Persian, reflecting the region's cultural and linguistic heritage. Additionally, the coin's copper composition and 8.60g weight make it a unique and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
