Interesting fact
The 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Kaithal, made of Silver and weighing 10.14g, is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Lal Singh ND (1781-1819), who was known for his efforts to modernize and develop the state's economy. This coin may have been part of his efforts to introduce a standardized currency system in the region.
