Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mangir coin from the Beylik of Karaman is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a stylized representation of the Mongolian emblem, the "Ka'bah", while the reverse side features an inscription in Islamic script. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history of the Anatolian Beyliks, which were established by Turkish tribes that were influenced by both Islamic and Mongolian cultures.
