Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Fals - Kayka'us I ND (1211-1220) coin from Rûm Sultanate is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the name of the Sultan, Kayka'us I, in Arabic script, while the reverse side features a stylized representation of a Mongolian horseman, reflecting the influence of the Mongol Empire that had conquered much of the Islamic world during that time. This blending of cultural styles is a testament to the rich cultural diversity of the Rûm Sultanate and its history of interactions with neighboring empires.
