Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Falus 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 Jahangir, alongside a Hindu temple and a mosque, symbolizing the religious harmony and cultural exchange that existed during the Mughal era in India.
