Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mohur coin from the Mughal Empire is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural styles on its reverse side. The coin's design includes a depiction of the Taj Mahal, which was built during the reign of Shah Jahan, Akbar's grandson and successor. This blending of cultural influences reflects the religious tolerance and syncretism that characterized Akbar's rule and the Mughal Empire as a whole.
