Weight varies from 4.6 to 4.8 gInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kori - Vibhaji coin from the Princely state of Nawanagar is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in India. The coin was minted between 1934 and 1936, during which time India was still a British colony, but there was growing nationalism and calls for independence. The coin's design, which features a portrait of the ruling Jam Sahib, Vibhaji III, and the name of the state in Gujarati script, reflects the blending of traditional Indian and European influences that was common in the princely states of the time. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of Indian numismatic history.
