Interesting fact
The coin is quite interesting! One fascinating fact about it is that it was issued during the reign of Ghazi Mehmed Bey, who was a prominent leader of the Beylik of Aydin, a Turkish principality that existed in the 14th century. The coin's design features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences, reflecting the cultural exchange that took place during that time period. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver and weighs 1.30 grams suggests that it was a significant coin in terms of value and circulation.
