Burhanpur MintInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Damra - Akbar (Burhanpur) coin is that it was issued during the reign of Emperor Akbar, who was known for his religious tolerance and his efforts to promote a syncretic form of Islam that combined elements of Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. This coin, which features both Islamic and Hindu motifs, reflects the religious diversity of the Mughal Empire during that time.
