1 Dokdo - Gohadaji II

Gohadaji II ruled Kutch from 1761 to 1778, a period during which the state maintained effective independence while navigating the competing pressures of Maratha expansion and early British commercial penetration into the region. The dokdo was the smallest practical copper denomination in Kutch's indigenous coinage system, and examples from this reign circulated heavily through the port economy of Bhuj and the trade routes running toward Mandvi.

Kutch retained its own mint and currency well into the colonial period — an unusual degree of monetary autonomy for a state of its size, sustained largely by the revenue generated through Gulf and East African maritime trade.
