Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Umayyad Caliphate, which was the first Islamic caliphate, established after the death of the Prophet Muhammad in 632 CE. The Umayyad Caliphate was known for its significant cultural and artistic achievements, and this coin is a reflection of that, with its intricate design and craftsmanship.
