This exceptional copper 1/2 Pice coin represents a fascinating piece of Indian numismatic history from the princely state of Bahawalpur. Minted during the reign of Sir Sadiq Muhammad Khan V (1907-1947 AD), this scarce denomination showcases the state’s independent monetary system during the British Raj era. The obverse features an elegant left-facing portrait of Mohammad Bahawal Khan V with inscriptions and date markings, while the reverse displays a traditional Toughra (royal insignia) with denomination details. Weighing 2.50 grams and catalogued as KM Y12, this coin is graded in Extremely Fine condition, indicating minimal wear and excellent preservation. Bahawalpur State coins are increasingly sought after by serious collectors due to their limited mintage and historical significance. This piece exemplifies the craftsmanship of early 20th-century Indian coinage and serves as a tangible connection to a princely state’s sovereignty. The scarce availability makes it a valuable addition to any collection of Indian numismatics or regional currency history.
