Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Fulad Sultan, who was the ruler of the Qara Qoyunlu tribal federation in Iraq during the 15th century. The coin features an inscription in Persian that reads "al-sultanu al-azam shahanshah" which means "the great king of kings" in English. This suggests that Fulad Sultan was a powerful and influential leader in the region at the time.
