Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Muhammad bin 'Ala ad-Din, who was the ruler of the Beylik of Karaman, a Turkish principality in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) during the 15th century. The coin features the name of the ruler and the date of issue in the Islamic calendar, which suggests that it was minted during his reign between 1424 and 1427. The fact that it is made of silver and weighs 1.39 grams also speaks to the importance of this coin as a medium of exchange and store of value during that time period.
