India - Princely States - Gwalior - Jayaji Rao (1843-1886) - AR Rupee, number '113, Ry.15 (KM.204), the number '113' may refer to the weight = 11 mashas, 3 ratis, but more likely (incl. the legend) copied from the contemporary gold coins of Laskar mint. The mint of Sheopur must have closed about 1860 and as the style and calligraphy of the coin differs considerable from the Sheopur issues (KM.203), it is assumed that it was struck, as a commemorative issue, at a different mint, most likely Lashkar. Presuming the regnal year may be of the British Raj, the coin may have been struck about 1874, which coincides with the issue of similar style Chandori-type coins at Lashkar
