One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Dinar - Abu 'Inan Faris ND (1348-1358) from Marinid dynasty made of Gold weighing 4.60 g is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a rendition of the Marinid dynasty's emblem, which includes a stylized bird and a crescent moon, while the reverse side features a Arabic inscription in a Mongolian-style script.
