[QUOTE="bgarg, post: 202634, member: 1876"]On reverse, the name and title of ruler 'Mahabat Khan' is written in Persian legends. On obverse, the state name, denomination and date is written in 'Gujarati' legends. The top line (from 0:45 till 0:15) the state name is written as "Shree Soruth Salrkar" which means 'his highness, the Saurastra Government'. Saurastra is the region name in which Junagadh city is situated and local people still call that area as 'Sauratstra'. In central circle, the denomination is written "1 Dokdo" and bottom line has date in Vikram Samvat era with Gujarati numerals. On first coin, no date is visible. Second one has VS 1965, third one has VS 1966 and fourth one has VS 1964. I am away from my reference books so can't tell you much about the Krause KM# for them. And am sure you will find it out :) Regards Ballabh Garg[/QUOTE]
