Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Kaykhusraw II, who was the Sultan of the Rûm Sultanate from 1237 to 1245. The Rûm Sultanate was a Turkish state that existed in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) during the 13th century. The coin is made of copper and weighs 4.96 grams, which was a common weight for coins of its time. The coin's design likely featured the Sultan's name and title, as well as other symbols or motifs that were significant to the Rûm Sultanate.
