I just happened to read a news item about the auction of a ring in London. To my surprise this ring belonged to Tipu Sultan and is very unique. It has "Ram" written on it. Do we conclude that Ram was the diety of Hindus and Muslims equally during that period?

It seems Hindus and Muslims were same at least culturally before British took over India.
