Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Badr al-Din Lu'lu', who was the founder of the Lu'lu'id dynasty, which was a local dynasty that ruled over parts of present-day Yemen and Saudi Arabia during the 13th century. Despite being a relatively small and short-lived dynasty, the Lu'lu'id rulers were known for their cultural and artistic achievements, and this coin is a testament to their legacy.
