Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Sulayman ibn al-Hakam, also known as Sulayman al-Andalus, who was the Umayyad Caliph of Córdoba from 1009 to 1010. During his reign, he implemented various reforms and military campaigns, and this coin was likely used as a means of exchange and commerce during that time.
