Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Rupee - Ibrahim Khan ND (1871-1908) from Princely state of Malerkotla (Indian princely states) made of Silver weighing 10.85 g is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and colonial-era influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features the name of the ruler, Ibrahim Khan, in Urdu script, while the reverse side features the British royal crest and the date of minting in English. This blend of styles reflects the complex history and cultural exchange that occurred during the British Raj in India.
