Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Yahya ibn Muhammad, who was the founder of the Idrisid dynasty and ruled from 848 to 864 CE. The Idrisid dynasty was a Muslim dynasty that ruled over a region that is now part of modern-day Morocco. This coin, made of copper and weighing 2.24 grams, was likely used for everyday transactions and circulated widely during that time period.
