Interesting fact

The Uqaylid dynasty, which issued this coin, was known for its unique style of coinage that featured the ruler's name and title in a circular format, surrounded by a border of ornate calligraphy. This style was inspired by the Abbasid Caliphate, which had a significant influence on the art and architecture of the region at the time.
