Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Manghir coin is that it was issued during the reign of Suleiman I, also known as Suleiman the Magnificent, who was the tenth and longest-reigning sultan of the Ottoman Empire, ruling from 1520 until his death in 1566. Suleiman was known for his military conquests, legal reforms, and cultural achievements, and his reign is often considered the golden age of the Ottoman Empire. The Manghir coin, which was minted in 1520, is a testament to the economic and cultural prosperity of the Ottoman Empire during this time.
