Kutch Coins

The Kingdom of Kutch was founded in the 12th century and was ruled by the Jadeja clan of Rajputs from 1147 AD to 1947 AD - when the state was absorbed into the Republic of India. Even today, the Kutch district continues to be renowned for its rich history and culture, its beautiful landscapes, and its unique wildlife. The region is also famous for the Rann of Kutch, a salt marsh. 

Coins of Kutch are popular with collectors because of their finely milled designs, and also because despite their rarity, they continue to remain affordable to most collectors (for now!). 

In 1947, when Kutch was finally merged into India, the rulers issued the 'Jai Hind' Kori - a silver Kori with the name of the ruler (Shri Madansinhji) on one side and the words Jai Hind on the other.
