Copper unit

The Copper unit (1-100) from Saurashtra Peninsula (Western India) made of Copper weighing 1.9 g was used as a form of currency in the region during the 18th and 19th centuries. It was known as a "Kori" and was divided into smaller units called "Paisa" or "Paisa". The Kori was widely used for trade and commerce, and its value was equivalent to 1/4th of a Rupee. It's interesting to note that the use of copper coins as currency was not unique to Saurashtra, as copper coins were used in many parts of India during that time period. However, the Kori from Saurashtra is distinctive because of its unique design and the fact that it was made of copper, which was a widely available metal in the region.
