| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field displays a Devanagari inscription arranged in multiple lines, recording the name and title of the ruling Maharao. Flanking or integrated within the legend are traditional Hindu symbols including a trident, a crescent, and a vertical dagger, emblematic of the Kutch ruling house. The Vikram Samvat regnal year appears at the base of the design in Kutchi numerals. The overall composition follows the indigenous princely style, with bold relief lettering filling the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kutch operated as a semi-autonomous princely state under British paramountcy, and its coinage reflects that awkward dual allegiance — local rulers maintained the right to strike their own silver, but designs were increasingly shaped by pressure from Calcutta. Pragmalji II reigned from 1860 to 1875, and this issue falls in the early years of his rule, shortly after the colonial relationship with the Crown had been formalized following the 1858 transfer of power from the East India Company.
Y#14.2 distinguishes itself from the closely related Y#14.1 by die variety. Kutch silver of this period circulated alongside British Indian coinage without much friction — the weight standard was kept compatible deliberately.
