| Aanvullende informatie |
Ganga Singh's golden jubilee in 1937–38 marked one of the most politically remarkable tenures in princely India — he had represented Bikaner at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, making him one of very few Indian rulers to negotiate directly on the world stage. Nazrana pieces were presentation coins struck to order, never intended for circulation, typically offered as personal gifts to the ruler or distributed at court during ceremonial occasions.
The Nazrana designation for this half-mohur effectively makes mintage figures meaningless — production was demand-driven and records were rarely kept.
