Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Dinar - Zaydan al-Nasir (Marrakesh; type 2) 1013-1020 (1605-1611) from Morocco made of Gold weighing 4.5 g is that it was issued during the reign of Sultan Zaydan al-Nasir, who was known for his military campaigns and administrative reforms. This coin was part of a series of gold coins that were minted during his reign, and it features an inscription in Arabic that reads "al-Sultan al-Azam" (the Great Sultan) on one side, and "Zaydan al-Nasir" on the other. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the influence of Islamic art and culture on Moroccan coinage during this period.
