Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Manghir - Bayezid II ND (1481-1512) coin from the Ottoman Empire is that it was one of the first coins to feature the name of the ruler, Bayezid II, in the Arabic script, which was a departure from the traditional use of Greek letters on Ottoman coins. This change in script was a significant move towards Islamization and a reflection of the growing influence of Islamic culture in the Ottoman Empire during that time.
