Interesting fact

The 1 Rupee coin from the Princely state of Orchha, made of Silver and weighing 11.60g, features an interesting fact. The coin was minted during the reign of Vikramajit Mahendra, who was the ruler of Orchha from 1792-1812. However, the coin bears the date 1206-1799, which suggests that it was minted using a different calendar system. This highlights the diverse cultural and historical influences that shaped the Princely states of India during that time.
