Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Fanam - Farrukhsiyar (Imtiyazgarh) ND (1713-1719) coin from the Mughal Empire (India) made of Gold weighing 0.36 g is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Indian architectural styles on its design. The coin's obverse side features a depiction of the Taj Mahal, which was built during the reign of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor who ruled from 1628 to 1658. The reverse side of the coin features a stylized representation of a mosque, which was a prominent architectural form during the Mughal period. The blending of these two styles reflects the cultural exchange and synthesis that occurred during the Mughal era, which was known for its rich artistic and cultural achievements.
