Interesting fact
The 2 Paisa coin from the Princely state of Sailana, made of copper and weighing 10.8g, is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Dule Singh ND (1850-1895), who was known for his efforts to modernize and develop the state's infrastructure, including the introduction of a new currency system. This coin is a tangible representation of the economic and political changes that were taking place in the princely states of India during the 19th century.
