Note: This is a rare Indian military canteen token of the 18th (Victoria Mary, Princess of Wales's Own) Hussars, valued at 1 Rupee—a denomination not recorded in Pridmore's reference on canteen tokens. The obverse features a crowned inscription with the regimental motto "Pro Rege, Pro Lege, Pro Patria Conmur", surrounding the unit name "XVIII Hussars", a design style used before 1910.

Originally raised in 1858, the 18th Hussars served prominently in India. Their tokens were likely used in regimental coffee shops—then popular gathering spots after morning parade—before these were gradually replaced by dry canteens by the late 19th Century.
