Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Abu Faris ‘Abd al-‘Aziz I, who was the third ruler of the Marinid dynasty and ruled from 1366 to 1372. The Marinid dynasty was a powerful and influential empire that controlled much of North Africa and parts of the Iberian Peninsula during the 13th to 15th centuries. The coin's gold content and the fact that it was issued during this time period make it a valuable and significant piece of history.
