Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of a Mongol ruler, Qutlugh Turkan, who was a powerful khanid queen and wife of Ghazan Khan, the seventh Mongol ruler of the Ilkhanate. She played a significant role in the political and military affairs of the dynasty during her husband's reign and even after his death, and her coinage reflects her influence and power.
