Interesting fact

The 5 Kori coin from the Princely state of Kutch (Indian princely states) made of Silver (.937) weighing 13.87 g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Khengarji III, who was the ruler of Kutch from 1912 to 1936, and the coin was minted from 1969 to 1993, long after his reign had ended. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was minted many years after the reign of the ruler it was named after.
