Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of 'Imad al-Din Abu Kalinjar, who was a prominent ruler of the Buyid dynasty, a Shia Muslim dynasty that ruled over much of modern-day Iran, Iraq, and parts of Turkey and Afghanistan during the 10th to 11th centuries. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content and weight suggest that it was a widely used and valued form of currency in the region.
