Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Shah Alam II Rupee coin from the Princely state of Kotah is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural elements 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 18th century.
