Mengni Taluka was a small princely state in the Kathiawar region of what is now Gujarat, and like several minor talukas during the Second World War, it resorted to issuing its own low-denomination scrip when small coin shortages became acute across British India. The wartime metal requisitions of the early 1940s drained subsidiary coinage from circulation at the local level, and taluka administrations were left to improvise.
The pressboard composition is notable — this is closer to stiff card stock than conventional banknote paper, which accounts for the high attrition rate among surviving examples. Most have split along fold lines or suffered edge deterioration from handling.
