Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Pir Ahmad, who was a powerful emir of the Beylik of Karaman in the 15th century. The coin's design features an inscription in Arabic that reads "al-Sultanu al-Azam" (the Greatest Sultan), which reflects the emir's ambition to establish his territory as a major power in the region. Despite its small size, this coin is a valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political systems of the time.
