Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Dam coin from the Mughal Empire 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 the Taj Mahal, which was built during the reign of Shah Jahan, the predecessor of Muhammad Shah. This blend of styles reflects the cultural diversity of the Mughal Empire and highlights the influence of different religions and architectural traditions on the empire's art and architecture.
