Interesting fact

The 1 Adhio coin from the Princely state of Kutch is interesting because it was minted during a brief period of time (1943-1946) when the state was under the rule of a regent, Vijayarajji, who was only 13 years old at the time. Despite his young age, Vijayarajji played an important role in the state's administration and was known for his progressive policies, including the introduction of a new currency system. The coin is a rare and unique piece of history that reflects the complex political and economic dynamics of the time.
