Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Trambiyo coin from the Princely state of Kutch is that it features a unique blend of traditional Indian and European design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of Victoria, the Roman goddess of victory, while the reverse side features a depiction of Pragmalji II, the ruler of Kutch at the time the coin was minted. This fusion of Eastern and Western design motifs reflects the cultural exchange and influences that were prevalent during the British colonial era in India.
