Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Dinar - Yusuf II ND (1391-1392) coin from the Emirate of Granada is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Christian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features Arabic script and the name of the ruler, Yusuf II, while the reverse side features a Christian cross and the coat of arms of the Emirate of Granada. This blending of religious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Emirate of Granada during the 14th century.
