Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 15th century of the Islamic calendar, also known as the Hijrah era. This era began in 622 CE, the year of the Prophet Muhammad's migration from Mecca to Medina, and is used to mark important events and anniversaries in many Islamic countries. The coin's design likely reflects this significance, with the 10 Pound denomination and 1400 (1979) date likely representing the year 1400 AH (Anno Hegirae) in the Islamic calendar.
