Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it was issued during the reign of Sultan Wali Allah Shah, who was known for his religious tolerance and his efforts to promote trade and commerce within the Sultanate of Bahmani. The coin's design, which features Arabic script and a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu motifs, reflects the cultural diversity of the region and the syncretic nature of the Sultanate's art and architecture.
