Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency during a time of political and social upheaval in the Islamic world. The Kharijite rebels, who issued this coin, were a group of dissidents who opposed the rule of the Umayyad Caliphate and sought to establish their own independent state. Despite their efforts, the rebellion ultimately failed, and the coin became a rare and valuable artifact for collectors and historians.
