Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made during a time of significant cultural and scientific achievements in the Islamic world. The Rassid dynasty, which ruled the Arabian Peninsula from the 9th to the 13th century, was known for its advancements in mathematics, astronomy, medicine, and philosophy. This coin, minted during the reign of al-Muntakhab al-Hasan (Sad'ah) in the 10th century, bears witness to the sophistication and prosperity of the Rassid Empire during that time.
