Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Mohur coin from the Kingdom of Assam is that it features a unique blend of traditional Assamese symbols and motifs, such as the "Kamakhya" symbol, which is a stylized representation of the goddess Kamakhya, and the "Kirtimukha" or "Face of Glory", which is a symbol of prosperity and good fortune. These symbols reflect the rich cultural heritage and traditions of the Assamese people and add to the coin's historical and numismatic significance.
