Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ajit Singh, who was a minor ruler of the Princely state of Gwalior in India. Despite being a minor ruler, Ajit Singh was able to issue his own coins, which is a testament to the autonomy and power of the princely states during that time. Additionally, the coin being made of silver and weighing 10.54g suggests that it was a significant denomination and had a high value, highlighting the economic importance of the princely states in India during the 19th century.
