Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Dinar coin from the Almohad Caliphate is that it features an inscription in Arabic that translates to "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah" on one side, and the name of the caliph, Abul Ula Idris I, on the other side. This inscription reflects the Islamic beliefs of the Almohad Caliphate and highlights the importance of religion in the coin's design.
