Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the "Ilkhan" Abu Sa'id Khan (Type C) 719 (1319) Dinar coin from Ilkhanate is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a stylized representation of the Mongolian emperor, Abu Sa'id Khan, while the reverse side bears an inscription in Arabic script that reads "Al-Sultanu Al-Azam" (The Greatest Sultan). This blending of cultural influences reflects the rich history of the Ilkhanate Empire, which was a Mongolian khanate that ruled over a vast territory that included present-day Iran, Azerbaijan, and parts of Turkey and Iraq.
