Interesting fact
The 1 Falus - Multan 1835 (1779) coin from the Empire of Sikh (Indian states) made of Copper weighing 11.70 g is interesting because it is a rare example of a coin that was issued during the Sikh Empire, which was a powerful and influential empire in the Indian subcontinent during the 19th century. The coin's design, which features a stylized representation of the Sikh symbol, the Khanda, and the inscription "Sri Dakshina" in Gurmukhi script, is also unique and reflects the cultural and religious heritage of the Sikh people.
