Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kori coin from the Princely state of Kutch is that it features a unique blend of traditional Indian and Islamic design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the name of the ruler, Raydhanji II, in bold Persian script, while the reverse side features a stylized representation of a lotus flower, which is a common motif in Hindu and Buddhist art. This blending of cultural influences reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Princely state of Kutch and its history of religious and artistic exchange.
