Interesting fact
The Tomara dynasty, which issued this coin, was a relatively short-lived dynasty that ruled over the northern parts of the Indian subcontinent, particularly the region now known as Haryana, during the 12th and 13th centuries. Despite their relatively brief reign, the Tomaras managed to leave a lasting legacy in the form of their coins, which are considered some of the most well-crafted and aesthetically pleasing coins of the medieval period in India. The 1 Jital coin , featuring Madana Pala (Posthumous), is a prime example of this.
