Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Abû 'Abd-allâh ash-Shî'î (al-Qayrawan), who was the third Fatimid caliph and ruled from 909 to 934 CE. The Fatimid Caliphate was a Shia Islamic caliphate that was established in 909 CE and lasted until 1171 CE. The caliphate was known for its religious tolerance, and its coins often featured both Arabic and Berber inscriptions. The 1 Dinar coin made of Gold weighing 4.17 g is a rare and valuable artifact from this time period.
