Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Amiri Dinar - al-Qahir ND (929-934) coin from the Abbasid Caliphate is that it features an intricate design that includes an inscription in Arabic that translates to "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." This inscription reflects the Islamic beliefs of the ruling caliph at the time, Al-Mu'tasim, who was known for his devotion to Islam and his efforts to promote its teachings throughout his empire.
