Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Kori - Vibhaji coin from the Princely state of Nawanagar is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in India. The coin was minted in the late 19th century, during the reign of Jam Sahib Vibhaji III, who ruled Nawanagar from 1891 to 1893. This was a period of great political and social upheaval in India, as the British colonial powers were exerting their influence over the princely states, and many Indian rulers were struggling to maintain their power and independence. Despite these challenges, the 5 Kori - Vibhaji coin remains a valuable and fascinating piece of Indian numismatic history.
