Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Muzahir al-Dawla Rafi' b. al-Husayn, who was the founder of the Uqaylid dynasty and ruled over the city of Takrit in modern-day Iraq. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
