Interesting fact

The Mangir - Ibrahim I 1050 (1641) coin from Baghdad Eyalet (Iraq) is notable for its unique design, which features a stylized representation of the Islamic crescent moon and star symbol on one side, and an inscription in Arabic on the other side that reads "Mangir - Ibrahim I" and "1050" (the year 1641 in the Islamic calendar). This design was used during the reign of Sultan Ibrahim I, who ruled the Ottoman Empire from 1640 to 1648. The use of the crescent moon and star symbol on the coin was a common motif in Ottoman coinage during this period, and it symbolized the Islamic faith and the power of the Ottoman Empire.
