Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change in India. The year 1800 marked the beginning of the British East India Company's rule over India, and the coin's minting in Bombay Presidency (now Mumbai) reflects the city's importance as a commercial hub during this period. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's production highlights the value placed on this precious metal during that time.
