Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Feleküddin Dündar Beg, who was a powerful Turkish emir that ruled over the Beylik of Hamid in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) in the early 14th century. The coin features an inscription in Arabic that includes the name of the ruler, the date of minting (714 AH, which corresponds to 1314 CE), and the mint location (Felekabad). The use of silver in the coin's production also indicates that it was a valuable and widely accepted form of currency during that time.
