Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Sultan Salah-ad-Din Hajji II, who was the last Sultan of the Mamluk Sultanate, which was a powerful state that ruled over much of the Middle East and North Africa during the 13th to 16th centuries. The coin's design features the name of the Sultan and the date of issue, which is written in the Islamic calendar year 1382. Despite its small size and humble material, this coin holds significant historical value as a symbol of the Mamluk Sultanate's economic and political influence during its time.
