| Additional information |
Kishangarh's gold mohurs of this period were struck under the "regal style" convention, meaning the local ruler — Madan Singh, who reigned from 1900 to 1926 — issued coinage acknowledging British imperial suzerainty by pairing his name with the reigning King-Emperor. This was not merely ceremonial deference; the arrangement was a condition of the subsidiary alliance system that governed most Rajput princely states by the early twentieth century. Kishangarh, a small state in what is now Rajasthan, had limited independent monetary authority by this point.
Gold mohurs from minor Rajput states of this era are chronically underdocumented in terms of actual mintage figures.
