Comment

Of Nazuk (Nadir) Shah

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Sasnu - Nadir Shah ND (1540-1546) coin from the Kashmir Sultanate is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural styles on its reverse side. The coin's design includes a depiction of a mosque with a dome and minarets, alongside a Hindu temple with a shikhara and a gopuram. This blending of architectural styles reflects the cultural diversity and religious syncretism that existed in the Kashmir Sultanate during the 16th century.
