Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Minuchihr I ibn Yazid, who was the founder of the Shirvanshah dynasty, a powerful Islamic dynasty that ruled over the Caucasus region for over 200 years. Despite being a relatively small coin, it is a significant historical artifact that provides insight into the economic and cultural practices of the time.
