Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pagoda coin from the Empire of Vijayanagara is that it features an image of Lord Shiva, the Hindu deity, on one side, and an inscription in the Kannada language on the other. This highlights the strong cultural and religious influences of the Hindu dynasty that ruled the empire during that time.
