Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the Abbasid Caliphate, which was a powerful and influential empire that spanned across much of the Middle East and parts of Central Asia from the 8th to the 13th century. The Abbasid Caliphate was known for its cultural, scientific, and artistic achievements, and its coins were an important symbol of its economic and political power. The Drachm - Qudama coin, in particular, was used in the eastern regions of the empire, including present-day Iran and Afghanistan.
