| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bombay Presidency's coinage for the Malabar Coast operated under a different chronological system than the rest of British India — the year 1188 here is in the Malabar era, not the Gregorian calendar. The region had been absorbed into Presidency administration following the defeat of Tipu Sultan at Seringapatam in 1799, and the British retained local reckoning partly to ease acceptance among populations long accustomed to it.
KM#207 is among the smaller fractional issues in this series, and genuine examples are frequently confused with contemporary local imitations that circulated alongside official strikes.
