Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency during a time of great cultural and economic exchange between India and other parts of the world, particularly during the Mughal Empire. The Nawabs of Arcot, who ruled the Carnatic region, were known for their patronage of the arts and their support of trade and commerce. The coin's design and materials reflect the blending of Indian and Islamic influences that characterized the art and architecture of the time.
