Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sardul Singh and Bahadur Shah, who were the rulers of the Princely state of Kishangarh in India during the late 19th century. The coin features a regal style design, which was a common feature of coins minted during this period. Additionally, the coin is made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time, and it weighs 10.8 grams, which is a relatively heavy weight for a coin of its size.
