It is an example of the pattern rupee produced at the Soho mint in Birmingham. This one is struck in copper, but proof specimen in silver also exists. The coin is exactly the size as the Imperial rupee. The Agent at Indore disagreed with it as these coins with same diameter could mix-up with the Imperial rupees. Thenit was decided by him that they should be of slightly smaller size. Therefore the successive issue VS 1956 is smaller and the portrait is pointing into the circular legend, because the used the same portrait punches for preparing the dies.

In The Holkar State Coinage it is listed under AE-Half Anna as 566, pl XVI-275 on the page 43.&nbsp;So it could be contributed towards this specimen as it was probable a trial strike issue. The pattern or trial pieces struck in copper are listed as KM #TS1.
