Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Mughal Empire's 1 Dam coin made of Copper is that it was issued during the reign of Emperor Akbar, who was known for his religious tolerance and his efforts to promote art, literature, and architecture. The coin's design likely reflects the cultural and artistic achievements of the Mughal Empire during this time period.
