Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of King George VI, who was the last British monarch to have his image appear on Indian currency. The coin features a portrait of the king on one side and a depiction of Yagya Narayan Singh, the ruler of the Princely state of Kishangarh, on the other. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was issued during the British colonial era in India and features the image of a local ruler, making it a unique piece of numismatic history.
