Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1925 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Bundi is that it features a unique blend of Indian and British influences in its design. The coin bears the image of King George V, who was the Emperor of India at the time, but it also includes the name of the local ruler, Raghubir Singhji, and the emblem of the Bundi state. This blending of colonial and local elements reflects the complex history and cultural exchange that occurred during the British Raj in India.
