Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Kaykhusraw III, who was the last sultan of the Rûm Sultanate, a Turkish state that existed in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) from the 13th to the 14th century. Despite being the last sultan, Kaykhusraw III's reign was marked by significant political and military achievements, including the conquest of the city of Antalya and the expansion of trade and commerce within the empire. This coin, made of copper and weighing 1.6 grams, was likely used in everyday transactions and could have been carried by merchants, traders, and other individuals living within the Rûm Sultanate during this time period.
