Interesting fact

The 2 Dirham coin from the Sutayid dynasty (Mongol States) made of Silver weighing 1.43g is interesting because it is a rare example of a coin that was issued during the Mongol Empire's rule over the Middle East and Central Asia. The coin features an inscription in Persian that reads "Ibrahimshah, King of Kings" and "Sutayid, son of Chagatai Khan" which highlights the influence of the Mongol Empire on the region's currency and culture during that time.
