Interesting fact
The 1 Dinar coin from the Emirate of Granada, minted during the reign of Muhammad VII b. Yusuf (1392-1408), is interesting because it features a unique blend of Islamic and European influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features an inscription in Arabic, while the reverse side features a Christian cross, reflecting the cultural exchange and religious coexistence that characterized the Al-Andalus region during that time.
