This exceptional copper 2 Paisa coin represents a significant piece of Indian numismatic history from the princely state of Baroda under the reign of Maharaja Sayaji Rao III (1875-1938 AD). Minted in the Vikram Samvat year 1949 (corresponding to 1892 AD), this coin showcases the artistry and administrative sophistication of one of India's most progressive rulers. The obverse features an intricate design with a scimitar and short hoof within a beaded circle, while the reverse displays inscriptions and the date, also enclosed in a decorative beaded border. Weighing 12.78 grams and measuring 29.16mm in diameter, this thin planchet specimen exhibits outstanding craftsmanship characteristic of Baroda State coinage. What makes this coin particularly desirable is its exceptional About UNC (Uncirculated) grade—remarkably rare for coins of this age and denomination. The presence of a die-rotation error at 1 o'clock position adds further numismatic interest and authenticity to the piece. Catalogued as KM # Y31.1, this coin is a prized acquisition for serious collectors of Indian princely state coins and those studying the monetary systems of pre-independence India. Its scarcity in such high grades makes it an investment-worthy collectible. #
