Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Fals - Nasir al-Din Muhammad 575 (1179) from Saltukid dynasty (Anatolian Beyliks) made of Copper is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a rendition of the Mongolian emperor's name, Nasir al-Din Muhammad, in Arabic script, while the reverse side features a stylized depiction of a dragon, which was a symbol associated with the Mongolian Empire. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex political and cultural landscape of the Anatolian region during the 12th century, when the Saltukid dynasty was a vassal state of the Mongol Empire.
