Beschrijving keerzijde Central field features a prominent katar (a push-dagger, the traditional emblem of the Kutch state) rendered in high relief, its broad double-edged blade and crossbar handle clearly delineated. Surrounding the katar are Arabic calligraphic inscriptions filling the field in the characteristic hammered style of Kutch princely issues. The design is bold and deeply struck, consistent with the hand-struck silver coinage of the Jadeja rulers. The katar serves as the principal dynastic and heraldic device on Kutch Kori coinage of this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Khengarji II ruled Kutch at a time when the kingdom was consolidating its position between Mughal imperial pressure and the rising commercial power of Surat's merchant networks. The kori itself was the backbone of Kutch's independent monetary system, a denomination that would persist through successive rulers for over two centuries. That continuity makes early-reign issues like those of Khengarji II considerably harder to attribute precisely — die wear, stylistic drift across the decade-long window, and the absence of dated specimens on most strikes complicate placement within the reign.
