Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Uljaytu Khan, also known as Muhammad Khodabandeh, who was the fifth Khagan emperor of the Ilkhanate dynasty in Persia. He ruled from 1304 to 1316 AD and was known for his military campaigns and administrative reforms. The coin features an image of the king on horseback, with an inscription in Persian that reads "Muhammad Khodabandeh, the Sultan of the World". The coin's gold content and intricate design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
