Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Rasul ibn 'Ali, who was the last ruler of the Sultanate of Mogadishu before it was conquered by the Portuguese in 1500. Despite being made of bronze, this coin is relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and the fact that it is no longer in circulation.
