Baroda, Sayaji Rao III&nbsp;(VS 1932-1995 /1875-1938 AD), Baroda&nbsp;Mint, Copper Square Heavy Paisa,&nbsp;AH 1299, Obv:&nbsp;Persian legend “Sikka mubarak sena Khas Kheil Shamsher Bahadur&nbsp; (The auspicious coin of the Commander of &nbsp;Sovereign band)” partially visible,&nbsp;Rev:&nbsp;Nagari letter "SA"&nbsp;for Sayaji Rao,&nbsp;“GA”&nbsp;for Gaekwad,&nbsp;1299 Hijri year with ‘sword’ symbol &amp; “zarb Baroda” off flan at the bottom,&nbsp;11.48g, 16.80 x 16.60mm,&nbsp;(Unlisted in Major Catalogues),&nbsp;about extremely fine,&nbsp;Extremely Rare.<o:p></o:p>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Note: Sayaji Rao III Gaekwad was the most illustrious ruler of the Gaekwad dynasty. Adopted by Queen Jamna Bai of Baroda, he came from a poor cowherd family from Kawlane, Maharashtra. He ruled for over sixty years, with exceptional foresight, erudition, pride and a progressive vision. He ascended the throne only 12 years of age, when his predecessor Malhar Rao was forced to abdicate on charges of poisoning the British resident in 1875. He reigned under a Council of Regency until he came of age and was invested with full ruling powers, in a shamiana at Nazar Bagh, Baroda, 28th December 1881.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The Hijri year 1299 starts in November 1881 so this exceptional rectangular coin must have been undoubtedly struck as a special presentation or ‘Nazarana’ issue for the investiture ceremony. Its weight is almost 1.5 times the normal weight of Baroda copper coins at this time.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p>
