Comment
Raziyya Sultana was the only female ever to rule the Delhi Sultanate.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Jital coin from the Sultanate of Delhi 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 a mosque with a central dome and minarets, surrounded by a Hindu-style temple with a shikhara (tower) and a gopuram (gateway). This blending of architectural styles reflects the cultural diversity and religious tolerance of the Sultanate of Delhi during the 13th century.
