Weight varies: 0.60-0.70Interesting fact
The coin is quite interesting! One fascinating fact about it is that it was issued during a time of great turmoil in Yemen. The country was facing political instability, and the Zaidi State was struggling to maintain its independence in the face of Ottoman and British colonialism. Despite these challenges, the coin still managed to be produced and circulated, which is a testament to the resilience of the Yemeni people.
