Interesting fact

The 3 Dokda coin from the Princely state of Kutch featuring Edward VIII [Khengarji III] is interesting because it was minted in 1993, but it bears the date 1936, which is the year Edward VIII abdicated the British throne. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was minted long after the event it commemorates took place.
