Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Muhammad b. Ibrahim, who was the ruler of the Beylik of Menteshe, a small principality located in the southwestern region of Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) during the 14th century. The coin is made of silver and weighs 0.88 grams, which was a common weight for coins of its time and place. Despite its small size, the coin is a valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political systems of the region during the late medieval period.
