Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Abu Sa'id, who was the last Ilkhanid ruler and reigned from 1316 to 1335. During his reign, the Ilkhanate empire was facing significant challenges, including internal conflicts, external threats, and economic difficulties. Despite these challenges, Abu Sa'id managed to maintain the empire's stability and issued several coins, including this fals, which was used as a means of payment and circulation among the people.
