Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Takka coin from the Princely state of Bundi 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 the Taj Mahal, which is a famous Islamic monument in India, alongside a Hindu temple, showcasing the cultural diversity and syncretism of the Indian subcontinent during the time of Muhammad Akbar II's reign.
