| Additional information |
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands do not issue their own currency — the Indian rupee is legal tender throughout the union territory. Coins attributed to this issuer are best understood as locally produced tokens or limited collector pieces rather than circulating government coinage, which explains the obscure "X#" catalog reference rather than a standard KM number. The X-series in Krause denotes exactly this kind of non-standard issue.
