Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Marinid dynasty coin is that it was made of gold and weighed 2.26 grams. This indicates that the coin was made of a valuable and durable material, which was likely a symbol of wealth and power for the Marinid dynasty. Additionally, the fact that the coin was a standard circulation coin suggests that it was widely used in trade and commerce during that time period.
