Interesting fact
The coin is quite interesting! One fascinating fact about it is that it was issued during the reign of Ghazi ud-din Haidar, who was the ruler of the Kingdom of Awadh (also known as Oudh) in India during the early 19th century. Awadh was one of the wealthiest and most powerful princely states in India at the time, and its rulers were known for their love of art, architecture, and culture. The coin's design and the materials used to make it reflect the rich cultural heritage of the region.
