Interesting fact
The Uqaylid dynasty, which issued this coin, was a Shia Muslim dynasty that ruled over parts of modern-day Iraq and Iran from the 10th to the 12th century. Despite their relatively short reign, the Uqaylids were known for their cultural and artistic achievements, and their coins are considered some of the most beautiful and historically significant from the Islamic world.
