Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kori coin from the Princely state of Kutch is that it was minted during a time of great historical significance. The coin was issued during the reign of George VI (Vijayrajji) from 1942 to 1944, which was a period of great turmoil in India, as the country was fighting for independence from British colonial rule. The coin's minting was likely a symbol of the Princely state's autonomy and independence, as it was one of the few states in India that was able to issue its own currency during that time.
