Interesting fact

The Fatteh Singh coin from the Princely state of Mewar is unique in that it was issued in 1978, but it bears the date 1921. This is because the coin was minted in 1978 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Fatteh Singh's reign, which began in 1921. This makes it a special commemorative coin that is both a nod to the past and a celebration of the present.
