Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of al-Ṣāliḥ Ṣāliḥ I, who was a prominent leader of the Artuqid dynasty, which was a Turkmen dynasty that ruled parts of Anatolia and Syria in the 14th century. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in Islamic coinage.
