Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Shah Muhammad, who was the second Sultan of the Jalayirid dynasty, and it features an inscription in Arabic that reads "Shah Muhammad, Sultan of the Jalayirid Sultanate" on one side, and the other side features an image of a lion attacking a bull, which symbolizes the power and strength of the Sultanate.
