1/4 Mohur - Khande Rao

Khande Rao ruled Baroda from 1856 until his death in 1870, a reign spent largely navigating the constraints imposed by the British Residency following the 1857 rebellion. The Gaekwad dynasty retained the right to strike gold coinage — a privilege many princely states lost or never held — though output from the Baroda mint in this period was limited and issues like this quarter mohur saw little heavy circulation among the general population.
