| Additional information |
Takhat Singh ruled Jodhpur from 1843 until the state's accession to India in 1949, having been installed by the British after a succession dispute following the death of Man Singh. This takka was struck early in his reign, when the Jodhpur mint was still producing copper coinage under arrangements that predated formal British oversight of Marwar's currency. The Princely States were never compelled to adopt a unified coinage, and Jodhpur's issues continued well past most neighboring states' transitions to colonial monetary systems.
