Interesting fact

The Paisa - Vagh Rajas of Mehidpur ND (1740-1817) coin from the Princely state of Indore is interesting because it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coinage in India during that time period. However, it's worth noting that the use of copper for coinage was not unique to India, as many other countries also used copper for their coins. Additionally, the weight of the coin, 14.67 grams, is also not particularly unusual for coins of that time period. It's important to note that without additional information, it's difficult to provide a more specific or interesting fact about this coin.
