I'm not sure that we can call Gwāliār Fort a transitional mint, it was more like a mistake.  It was taken during the 3rd Maratha War, about 1802/3, and half the dependent territory was handed back to the traitorous Sindhia governor who gave it up without a fight, and half to the Rana of Gohad.  The Brits kept the fort and town.  Later, Daulat Rao put up a legal challenge to bits of the treaty of Surji Anjangaon, and the fort was handed back, and he was also allowed to retake Gohad (the Rana had been treacherous, it was said, so the Brits abandoned him to his fate), in 1804 I think it was.  The Rana of Gohad was given Dholpur instead, maybe in 1805.
