Comment
Struck circa the 1420s and 1430s.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coins in the Beylik of Aydin during the 15th century. Copper was a readily available resource in the region and was often used for minting coins due to its durability and resistance to corrosion. The use of copper for coins also made them more accessible to the general population, as they were more affordable than coins made from precious metals like gold or silver.
