| Aanvullende informatie |
Jaipur's brass coinage of the early 1940s occupies an odd administrative corner: the princely states retained the right to issue their own currency well into the final decade of British India, even as the broader colonial monetary system pushed hard toward standardization. Man Singh II, the Maharaja whose name appears alongside George VI's, was a polo-playing modernizer who had studied at Woolwich — he later became India's ambassador to Spain after independence dissolved the princely order entirely.
Brass was a wartime substitution driven by the same metal pressures afflicting coinages across the empire in 1943–44.
