Bajranggarh, Jainagar Mint. Dotted border on both sidesInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Jai Singh, who was a prominent ruler of the Princely state of Gwalior in India. He was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to modernize the state's administration and economy. The coin itself is made of silver and weighs 10.85 grams, which was a significant amount for a circulating coin at that time.
