Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Abu'l-Muzaffar Muhammad, who was the ruler of the Aq Qoyunlu tribal federation in Fars and Iraq-Ajam. The Aq Qoyunlu were a powerful Turkic tribal confederation that played a significant role in the political and military history of the region during the 15th century. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of the region.
