Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Qaraman Bey, who was a powerful leader of the Alaiye Beylik, a Turkmen principality that existed in the 14th and 15th centuries in Anatolia, modern-day Turkey. The coin features an inscription in Arabic that reads "al-'Alâ'iya" which means "the exalted" or "the sublime", indicating the high status of Qaraman Bey during his reign.
