Comment
Album 2563A. Very fine.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The Lion and Sun motif on the obverse (front) side of the coin is a common symbol in Islamic art, while the Mongolian influence can be seen in the use of the Persian script on the reverse (back) side of the coin. This blending of cultural styles reflects the rich history and diversity of the Aq Qoyunlu tribe, who were known for their cultural and religious tolerance.
