Interesting fact
The coin , the 25 Cash coin from the Princely state of Mysore, is interesting because it was part of a unique currency system. The Mysore state had its own currency, the Mysore rupee, which was divided into 80 paise or 160 cash. This coin, which is made of copper, represents one of the smallest denominations of the Mysore currency. It's fascinating to see how different regions and states in India had their own currency systems before the country's independence and the adoption of the Indian rupee as the standard currency.
