Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of al-Muzaffar Mahmud, who was the Emir of Hamah from 1229 to 1244. During his rule, the Ayyubid Sultanate was facing significant political and economic challenges, including the threat of Mongol invasions and internal power struggles. Despite these challenges, the coinage issued during this period, including the 1 Fals coin made of copper, suggests that the Emirate of Hamah was still capable of producing currency and maintaining some level of economic stability.
