1/4 Anna - Victoria

Bikaner's coinage in the 1890s was produced under the authority of Dungar Singh, who maintained a degree of administrative autonomy that allowed the princely state to issue its own copper for local circulation well into the British Raj period. The quarter anna denominations of this era circulated primarily in bazaar trade, where British Imperial coinage was often in short supply or actively hoarded.

KM#71 is among the more consistently encountered Bikaner types, but survivors in unworn condition are less common than raw numbers suggest — the copper alloy used by smaller Rajputana mints was frequently inconsistent, leading to porous surfaces that accelerated wear.
