Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made during the reign of Ahmad b. Matt (Ispijab) of the Mattid dynasty (Samanid dynasty), which was a Persian dynasty that ruled from 819 to 999 CE. The coin is made of copper and weighs 2.78 grams, which was a common weight for coins during that time period. The fact that it has survived for over a thousand years and is still in circulation today is a testament to the durability and craftsmanship of the coin makers of that era.
