Comment
- citing Caliph al-Nasir -Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Fals - Möngke (Otrar) ND (1251-1259) coin from Great Mongol is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a stylized representation of the Mongolian emperor, Möngke, while the reverse side bears an inscription in Arabic script that reads "al-sultanu al-azam" or "the great king." This blending of cultural influences reflects the multicultural nature of the Mongol Empire, which stretched from China to Eastern Europe and incorporated many different ethnic and religious groups.
