Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Hulagu Khan, the founder of the Ilkhanate, on one side, and a stylized representation of a dragon on the other. The dragon symbolized the power and strength of the Mongol Empire, which had expanded significantly under Hulagu Khan's leadership. The coin's design reflects the blending of Mongolian and Islamic cultures that occurred during the Ilkhanate period.
