Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Paisa coin from the Princely state of Gwalior is that it features a unique blend of traditional Indian and European design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of Mahadji Rao, the ruler of Gwalior, in a traditional Indian style, while the reverse side features a European-style wreath surrounding the coin's denomination. This blend of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influences that were present during the time period in which the coin was minted.
