Interesting fact
The ½ Kori coin from the Princely state of Kutch (Indian princely states) made of Silver (.601) weighing 2.25 g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Khengarji III, who was a prominent ruler of the Kutch state in the late 19th century. He was known for his efforts in modernizing the state and introducing new reforms, which is reflected in the design of this coin.
