Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Paisa - Gopal Singh (Jhabua) ND (1866-1879) from Princely state of Jhabua (Indian princely states) made of Copper weighing 9.5 g is that it features a unique blend of traditional Indian and European design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of a crowned bust of Gopal Singh, the ruler of Jhabua, while the reverse side features a depiction of a stylized lotus flower, which is a common motif in Indian art and architecture. This blend of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between India and Europe during the colonial period.
