Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Dirham - al-Muktafi ND (902-908) from Abbasid Caliphate made of Silver weighing 3.20 g is that it features an intricate design, including an inscription in Arabic that reads "Muhammad is the Messenger of God" on one side, and an image of the caliph al-Muktafi on the other. This coin was used widely in trade and commerce during the Abbasid Caliphate, which was a powerful and influential empire that spanned across much of the Middle East and parts of Asia during the 8th to 13th centuries.
