Interesting fact

The 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Baroda, minted during the reign of Anand Rao (1806-1820), features a unique blend of Indian and European influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of a lion, which was a common motif in Indian coinage, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Roman goddess of liberty, Libertas, holding a staff and a shield with the Baroda state emblem. This blending of cultural symbols reflects the complex history of the Princely states of India, which were influenced by both Indian and European powers.
