Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Falus coin from the Sultanate of Malwa is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural styles. The coin's design includes a depiction of a mosque, which reflects the Islamic influence on the region, while the arches and domes are adorned with Hindu-style carvings. This blending of styles is a testament to the cultural exchange and syncretism that occurred during the Pre-Mughal period in India.
