Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and European influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features an Arabic inscription with the name of the ruler, Abdulaziz, and the year of minting, 1281, while the reverse side features a depiction of a crowned shield with a crescent moon and star, which was a common motif in European heraldry. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between the Islamic world and Europe during the 19th century.
