Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Falus coin from the Sultanate of Malwa is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural styles on its reverse side. The coin's design includes a depiction of a mosque with a central dome and minarets, surrounded by a decorative border that showcases the influence of Hindu temple architecture. This fusion of styles reflects the cultural exchange and syncretism that occurred during the Sultanate's rule in medieval India.
