This exceptional Copper Paisa represents a significant piece of Indian numismatic history from the princely state of Lunavada under Maharaja Wakhat Singh Ji’s reign (1867-1929 AD). Minted in VS1949 (1892 AD), this KM10 denomination features a striking lion motif facing right—a symbolic emblem of state sovereignty—with the date elegantly inscribed in Gujarati numerals below. The reverse displays traces of Gujarati inscriptions, adding to its historical authenticity.

Weighing 6.60 grams and measuring 18.75 x 18.19 mm, this copper specimen showcases Very Fine condition, demonstrating remarkable preservation for over a century. Its rarity classification makes it highly sought after by serious collectors of Indian princely state coinage and numismatists specializing in regional currencies. The fully dated obverse is particularly noteworthy, as many examples lack clear date markings. This coin exemplifies the artisanal craftsmanship and cultural pride of Lunavada’s monetary system, making it an invaluable addition to any collection focused on pre-independence Indian states or copper coinage.
