Jaora 1 paisa
I haven't posted in a long time, so I thought I would post a nice item. Here is the Jaora state 1 paisa. Obverse reads his highness the Nawab of Jaora 1893, and within the circle we can read "sarkar jaora zarb", with Zarb meaning mint.
The Reverse reads sarkar Jaora, with the date at the bottom and In the circle, we can see "ek paisa": the denomination, Flag of Jaora and Hijri Date 1310.
