Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Abu Muhammad ‘Abd Allah II, who was the last Zayyanid ruler to mint coins in gold. This coin, made of gold and weighing 4.40g, was a significant departure from the usual copper or silver coins that were commonly used during that time, reflecting the wealth and power of the Zayyanid dynasty.
