Wankaner was one of the smaller Kathiawar princely states in present-day Gujarat, and its wartime cash coupons were a direct response to the acute small-denomination coin shortage that gripped British India from around 1942 onward. The colonial government's metal requirements for the war effort stripped circulation of low-value coins, and many princely states — Wankaner among them — stepped in with emergency paper substitutes for fractions of a rupee.
The 1 Paise denomination is about as low as emergency scrip gets. These coupons circulated locally and were theoretically redeemable, though the redemption mechanism in smaller states was often informal at best.
