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 the Ilkhanate was a part of. This coin was circulated during Hulagu Khan's reign, which lasted from 1256 to 1265, and it was made of copper, a common metal used for coinage during that time period.
