Interesting fact

The Mohammad Akbar II Rupee coin from the Princely state of Jodhpur was minted during a time of great turmoil in India. The coin was issued during the reign of Mohammad Akbar II, who was the ruler of Jodhpur from 1816 to 1859. During this period, the British East India Company was expanding its territories in India, and many princely states, including Jodhpur, were facing pressure from the British to sign treaties and cede control over their territories. Despite these challenges, the Mohammad Akbar II Rupee coin remains a testament to the rich cultural and economic heritage of the Princely state of Jodhpur.
