Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mohur coin from the Kingdom of Cooch-Behar is that it features a unique blend of Indian and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of King Nripendra Narayan, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi, along with the coin's denomination and year of issue. This fusion of Indian and Western design elements reflects the cultural exchange and influences that were prevalent during the time period in which the coin was minted.
