Interesting fact
The Saffarid dynasty, which issued this coin, was a Persian dynasty that ruled over a large part of the Islamic world, including modern-day Iran, Afghanistan, and parts of Pakistan and Turkmenistan, from 861 to 1003 AD. The Saffarids were known for their military prowess and their support of the arts, and their coins are considered to be some of the most beautiful and historically significant of the Islamic world.
