Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ali Adil Shah II, who was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to promote trade and commerce in the Sultanate of Bijapur. The coin's design, which features a unique blend of Islamic and Deccani architectural styles, reflects the cultural and artistic achievements of the Sultanate during this period. Additionally, the use of silver as the material for the coin speaks to the region's rich mineral resources and its strategic location along trade routes.
