Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of al-'Adil Sulayman, who was a prominent leader of the Ayyubid Sultanate, a medieval Islamic empire that spanned across parts of the Middle East and North Africa. 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 Islamic coinage.
