Interesting fact
The Muhammad Shah Rupee coin from the Maratha Empire was unique in that it featured a portrait of the emperor on one side and a depiction of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi on the other. This blending of Islamic and Hindu imagery reflects the religious tolerance and syncretism that was a hallmark of the Maratha Empire during that time.
