The Mikhail III Shishman coin is a rare example of a coin that was issued during the Second Bulgarian Empire, which was a medieval state that existed from 1185 to 1396. The coin features an image of Mikhail III Shishman, who was the Emperor of Bulgaria from 1323 to 1330. The fact that it's made of copper and weighs only 1.9 grams makes it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in medieval currency.
