Palitana was a princely state in the Kathiawar peninsula of Gujarat, and like dozens of other small Indian states during World War II, it issued low-denomination emergency cash coupons to address the acute coin shortage that wartime metal requisitioning had created across British India. The 2 Paisa denomination is about as small as these issues get — fractional coinage had effectively vanished from circulation by the early 1940s, and these pressboard substitutes filled a gap that the colonial monetary system simply couldn't cover fast enough.
The pressboard composition distinguishes it from the tissue-thin emergency chits issued by larger states; Palitana's coupons were built to take some handling.
