Interesting fact
The 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Baroda, issued during the reign of Anand Rao ND (1788-1808), is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This coin was also relatively heavy, weighing 11.64 grams, which made it a substantial piece of currency. Additionally, the fact that it was issued by a princely state, rather than a central authority, highlights the diversity and complexity of the monetary system in India during that time period.
