Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ahmad Shah Bahadur (Kalpi) 1 Rupee coin from the Maratha 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 a mosque, which reflects the Islamic influence on the Maratha Empire at the time, while the arches and domes of the mosque are decorated with Hindu-style carvings and sculptures. This blending of styles is a testament to the cultural diversity and syncretism that characterized the Maratha Empire during its reign.
