Interesting fact
The Nazarana Takka coin from the Princely state of Jodhpur, minted in 1923 (1866), is interesting because it was made of copper, a metal that was widely used for currency in India during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Copper coins were popular because they were durable, had a low intrinsic value, and were easy to produce. The use of copper for currency also made it easier for people to use and exchange coins in their daily transactions.
