Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sultan al-Musta'in billah, who ruled the Mamluk Sultanate from 1412 to 1421. The Mamluk Sultanate was a powerful state that controlled much of the Middle East and North Africa during the 13th to 16th centuries, and its coins are highly sought after by collectors today.
