Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Bundi is that it features a unique blend of Indian and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of King Edward VII, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Bundi state's symbol, a stylized elephant with a howdah on its back, surrounded by intricate floral patterns. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influences that existed between India and Europe during the colonial era.
