Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ilkhanate coin featuring Arghun Khan is that it was issued during a time of significant cultural and religious tolerance in the region. Despite being a Mongolian ruler, Arghun Khan allowed for the free practice of Islam, Christianity, and Buddhism within his territories, and this diversity is reflected in the coin's design, which features both Islamic and Mongolian symbols.
