Comment
Some coins are over-struck on a earlier paisa of baroda.Interesting fact
The 1 Paisa coin from the Princely state of Baroda, issued during the reign of Sayaji Rao II (1819-1847AD), features a unique blend of Indian and European influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of the king, while the reverse side features a depiction of a lion, which was a common motif in the princely state's coinage. The coin's design is a reflection of the cultural exchange and blending that occurred during the colonial era in India.
