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 "Uljaytu Khan, the King of Kings" on one side, and an image of a lion on the other side. The coin was made of silver and weighed 4 grams.
