Comment
This is a possibly unique piece, being the first known coin of Tughril II struck at Isfahan.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Tughril II, who was the Sultan of the Seljuq Empire from 1132 to 1134. He was known for his military campaigns against the Crusader states and his efforts to consolidate the Seljuq Empire's power in the region. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, with Arabic script and Islamic symbols featured prominently on the coin's surface.
