Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it was issued during the reign of Al-Murtada, who was a caliph of the Abbasid Caliphate, and it features an inscription in Arabic that translates to "Al-Murtada, by the grace of God, the father of Al-Qasim Muhammad" on one side, and the other side features an image of the caliph himself. This coin is significant because it highlights the importance of the Abbasid Caliphate, which was one of the most powerful empires in the Islamic world during its time, and it also showcases the artistic and cultural achievements of the Rassid dynasty, which was known for its beautiful coinage. Additionally, the fact that it is made of gold adds to its value and rarity, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and historians.
