Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 5 Cash - Krishnaraja Wodeyar III ND (1811-1813) from Princely state of Mysore (Indian princely states) made of Copper weighing 2.22 g is that it features a unique blend of Indian and Islamic influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a Lion, which is a common motif in Islamic coinage, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Hindu deity Lord Vishnu, indicating the cultural diversity and syncretism that existed in the Princely state of Mysore during that time.
