Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of political turmoil in the region. The Jalayirid puppet state of Ilkhanate was a short-lived state that was established in the 14th century, and this coin was minted during the reign of Muhammad Khan, who was the puppet ruler of the state. Despite the political instability of the time, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, showcasing the skill of the mint workers and the attention to detail that was put into its creation.
