Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of a horseman on one side, which was a common design element in coins of the Rûm Sultanate during that time period. The horseman symbolized the power and strength of the sultanate, and it was often accompanied by other symbols, such as a crescent moon or a star, which represented the Islamic faith of the ruling dynasty. The coin's design was likely influenced by the Byzantine Empire's coinage, which had a similar style and was widely circulated in the region.
