Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Chinese and Arabic influences in its design. The use of Seal script, also known as Chinese Islamic script, reflects the cultural exchange and integration that occurred during the Song Dynasty, which was a period of significant cultural and economic exchange between China and the Islamic world. The coin's design also features a stylized Arabic inscription, which adds to its cultural and historical significance.
