Interesting fact
The Ayyubid Sultanate, which issued this coin, was a Muslim dynasty that ruled over a significant part of the Middle East and North Africa during the 12th and 13th centuries. The Ayyubids were known for their military prowess and their ability to unite disparate tribes and regions under their rule. This coin, issued during the reign of al-Kamil Muhammad II, is a testament to the Ayyubid Sultanate's economic and cultural achievements during that time.
