Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Akçe - Ibrahim 846 (1443) coin from the Beylik of Karaman is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Anatolian design elements. The coin's obverse side features a stylized representation of the Islamic crescent moon and star, while the reverse side features a depiction of a mythical creature known as the "Karamanid Lion," which is a symbol of the Beylik of Karaman.
