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 when the Prophet Muhammad migrated from Mecca to Medina, and it is still used today as a way to date events in many Muslim-majority countries. The coin's design likely reflects this significance, with the gold material and 8.25g weight representing the value and importance of the occasion.
