Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of al-Mansur 'Abd al-'Aziz, who was the last Sultan of the Mamluk Sultanate, which was a powerful state that ruled over much of the Middle East and North Africa during the 13th to 16th centuries. Despite being the last Sultan, al-Mansur 'Abd al-'Aziz was known for his military campaigns and administrative reforms, which helped to stabilize the Sultanate and maintain its power. This coin, which was issued during his reign, is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Mamluk Sultanate and its influence on the region's history and culture.
