Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1976 Indian 50 Rupees (FAO) silver coin is that it features the national emblem of India, which is a lion standing on the Ashoka Chakra, a wheel with 24 spokes. This emblem was originally used by the Mauryan Empire in the 3rd century BCE and was later adopted as the national emblem of India after independence in 1947. The coin's design is a nod to India's rich history and cultural heritage.
