Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kasu coin from the Kingdom of Madurai is that it features a unique blend of Hindu and Islamic influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears a depiction of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi, while the reverse side features a Islamic inscription in the Persian language. This blending of cultural influences reflects the rich history and diversity of the Indian subcontinent during the time period.
