| Opmerkingen |
Khadal was among the smallest of the Kathiawar princely states in western India — a minor thakorate with negligible revenue and no formal banking infrastructure. The wartime cash coupons issued by these tiny states were practical improvisations driven by the severe coin shortage that afflicted rural Gujarat and Kathiawar during World War II, when metal was diverted to the war effort and the colonial monetary supply to remote areas collapsed.
No Pick number has been assigned; surviving examples are so rare that standardized catalog treatment has never been possible. Attribution itself sometimes rests on a single known specimen.
