Interesting fact

The Pattern 1 Nazrana Rupee 1865 from the Princely state of Baroda (Indian princely states) made of Silver weighing 11.6g is an interesting coin because it features a unique blend of Indian and European design elements. The coin's obverse side features a depiction of the Baroda state's emblem, a shield with a crown on top, surrounded by a wreath. The reverse side features a representation of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity, seated on a lotus flower. This blend of Indian and European design elements reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred during the colonial era.
