Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mohur - Victoria 1860 coin from the Princely state of Bundi is that it features a unique blend of traditional Indian and European design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of Queen Victoria, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Bundi state's symbol, a stylized elephant, along with the coin's denomination and year of issue. This fusion of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between India and Europe during the colonial era.
