Comment
Bhilsa Mint. Krause incorrectly lists it under Jayaji RaoInteresting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Madho Rao II, who was a notable ruler of the Gwalior state in the early 19th century. He was known for his efforts to modernize the state and promote education, and his rule saw the establishment of several educational institutions and infrastructure projects. This coin, which bears his name and date of issue, is a testament to his legacy and the history of the Gwalior state.
