Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Indian and Tibetan influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of Triloka Chandra Deva, the ruler of the Kingdom of Kangra, while the reverse side features the Hindu goddess Lakshmi, indicating the cultural exchange and religious syncretism that existed during this period in Indian history.
