Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ashrafi coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the Mamluk Sultanate, which was a powerful and influential empire that controlled much of the Middle East and North Africa during the 13th to 16th centuries. The coin was made of gold and weighed 3.39 grams, indicating its high value and importance in trade and commerce during that time.
