Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Mohar coin from the Patan Kingdom (Malla dynasty) is that it features an image of Lord Shiva, which was a common motif on coins during the Malla dynasty. This suggests that the rulers of the kingdom were Shaivites, or followers of Shiva, and that the coin was likely used for religious purposes as well as for trade and commerce.
