1/8 Rupee - Anonymous / Yagya Narayan Singh First Series

Kishangarh's coinage persisted well into the twentieth century largely because the princely states retained the right to issue currency under British paramountcy, provided the coins didn't directly compete with Imperial coinage in commerce — a provision honored more in theory than practice. The "Anonymous" attribution reflects genuine uncertainty about which ruler's reign specific die pairs belong to, as the state's records were not maintained with the precision that later researchers required. Yagya Narayan Singh ruled from 1926 until the series ended, placing the later strikes squarely in the final decades before integration into the Indian Union extinguished Kishangarh's minting authority entirely.
