Interesting fact

The Fractional Dinar coin from Alamut State (Greater Iran) made of Gold weighing 1.42 g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Muhammad I (1138-1162), who was the founder of the Alamut State and the first Imam of the Nizari Ismaili sect. This coin is a rare example of the currency used during that time period and region, and its gold content makes it a valuable piece for collectors and historians.
