Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during a time of great turmoil in the Princely state of Bhavnagar. The ruler, Bhavsinhji I Ratanji, was facing challenges from neighboring states and the British East India Company, which was seeking to expand its influence in the region. Despite these challenges, the coin was minted with a unique design and symbolism, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region.
