Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Dirham - Abu'l-Saraya al-Shaybani 199 (815) from Zaydi Rebellion (Abbasid rebels) made of Silver weighing 2.91 g is that it was minted during a time of great political and social upheaval in the region. The Zaydi Rebellion, which took place in the early 9th century, was a period of significant turmoil and conflict within the Abbasid Caliphate, and the minting of this coin likely reflects the economic and political instability of the time. Despite the challenges faced during this period, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the resilience and determination of the people who lived through it.
