Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ibrahim ibn al-Rajih, who was the founder of the Uqaylid dynasty and ruled over the region of Barqa'id (present-day Libya) from 1000 to 1009 AD. The coin is made of silver and features inscriptions in Arabic, including the name of the ruler and the date of issue. This coin is a rare and valuable artifact for collectors and historians interested in the history of Islamic coinage and the Uqaylid dynasty.
