Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Jital coin from the Sultanate of Delhi is that it was issued during the reign of Nasir al-Din Mahmud, who was known for his military campaigns and administrative reforms. Despite being made of bronze, the coin was still considered a standard circulation coin and was widely used in trade and commerce during that time.
