Comment

Unusual Issue in Mughal style, likely a result of Mughal influence. Issue with the name of Queen Pramatheshvari, which is unusual and Shiva Simha. 

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Hindu and Buddhist motifs. The obverse side of the coin depicts Siva Singha, the king of Assam, seated on a throne with his consort, Pramateswari Devi, standing beside him. The reverse side of the coin features a depiction of the Buddhist wheel of dharma, surrounded by four smaller symbols that represent the four Buddhist virtues of charity, morality, patience, and effort. This blending of religious motifs reflects the diverse cultural influences that shaped the Kingdom of Assam during its history.
