Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in India, specifically during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, also known as the Sepoy Mutiny. This rebellion was a widespread uprising against the rule of the British East India Company, and it ultimately led to the dissolution of the company and the direct rule of India by the British Crown. Despite the tumultuous time period, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the Princely state of Hyderabad.
