Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Dirham - Yusuf ibn Wajih 327 (939) from Wajihid dynasty (Arabian Peninsula) made of Silver weighing 2.75 g is that it features an inscription in Arabic that translates to "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah" on one side, and an image of a standing figure on the other. This coin was minted during the reign of Yusuf ibn Wajih, who was the ruler of the Wajihid dynasty, which was a short-lived Islamic dynasty that ruled over parts of the Arabian Peninsula in the 10th century. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the Islamic beliefs and values of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
