The Pattern 1 Paisa coin from the Princely state of Jaora, minted during the reign of Muhammad Ismail Khan (1893-1896), features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of the time. The coin's reverse side features a stylized depiction of a peacock, which was a symbol of the princely state, surrounded by intricate floral patterns. This design element was a departure from the traditional Islamic coinage designs that were commonly used in the Indian princely states, and showcases the diversity and creativity of coin design during that era.
