Nawanagar was a small princely state on the Kathiawar Peninsula in present-day Gujarat, and its coinage operated largely outside British India's standardized monetary framework until accession in 1948. The dokdo — a fraction of the kori, Nawanagar's primary unit — circulated locally in a region whose economy ran heavily on fishing and trade through the port of Jamnagar. The broad date range reflects continuous reissuance of types rather than a single production run, with dies and fabric varying considerably across regnal periods.
