Nawanagar was a princely state on the Kathiawar peninsula in what is now Gujarat. During the Second World War, a severe shortage of small-denomination coinage across British India prompted many princely states to issue emergency cash coupons as substitutes. Nawanagar's series, including this 1 Anna piece, filled the gap left by the withdrawal of copper and bronze coinage redirected toward the war effort.
Pick S392 is among the more obscure entries in the princely states emergency issues. Nawanagar is better remembered for its cricket than its currency — the state's ruler Ranjitsinhji had been one of England's great batsmen — but these coupons represent one of the more practical administrative decisions of the wartime period.
