Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Paisa coin from the Princely state of Cambay is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Western architectural styles in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a mosque with a dome and minarets, while the reverse side features a crowned shield with the name of the ruler, Jafar Ali Khan, inscribed in Urdu. This fusion of styles reflects the cultural diversity of the Princely state of Cambay, which was a Muslim-ruled state in a predominantly Hindu region.
