At a time when digital payments have made their way into households and cash has become less common, a village in Uttar Pradesh discovered coins from the Mughal-era. Reports suggest that as many as 400 coins belonging to the Mughal dynasty have been unearthed at a temple in Saharanpur.
Officials said the coins were found by labourers while digging soil at Sati Dham temple in Hussainpur village. Upon receiving news of discovering coins from the Mughal-era, the police took possession of the valuable artefacts. Superintendent of Police, Sagar Jain, said the labourers stumbled upon the coins while erecting a wall at the temple.
