Comment

Bajaranggarh was a small state in Gwalior District between 1797 - 1818 AD

Interesting fact

The 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Bajranggarh, issued during the reign of Jai Singh (Bajaranggarh) ND (1808-1816), features a unique design element - a crescent moon and a star on the obverse side, which is not commonly seen on coins of that era. This design was likely inspired by the Islamic influence on the region at the time.
