Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of al-Afdal al-'Abbas, who was the fourth ruler of the Rasulid dynasty, which was a powerful and influential dynasty that ruled over much of the Arabian Peninsula and parts of the Middle East during the 14th century.
