Year 15, FarwardiInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Rupee - Jahangir (Delhi) ND (1612-1625) coin from the Mughal Empire (India) is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural styles on its reverse side. The coin's design showcases the Mughal Empire's syncretic artistic tradition, which combined elements from different cultures and religions to create a distinctive and beautiful style. The coin's reverse side features an arched gateway with a dome on top, which is a common feature in Islamic architecture, while the pillars and the base of the gateway are decorated with Hindu-style carvings. This blend of styles reflects the cultural diversity of the Mughal Empire and its willingness to adopt and incorporate different artistic traditions.
