Bust of the King facing left with Bengali legend around, Rev. lion rampant to left with date TE 1337 (1930 AD), Gem Uncirculated, Extremely Rare in this grade. During Vir Vikrama Kishore Manikya Deva reign, Tripura was largely under British suzerainty, which meant the kingdom was mostly protected from external invasions. Consequently, there were no major wars or internal civil wars recorded. The main political activity involved maintaining loyalty to the British East India Company / British Crown after 1858. Alliances were therefore primarily political and administrative, ensuring Tripura’s autonomy under British oversight. Any military action was limited to local policing or small frontier skirmishes, rather than large-scale battles
