Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Presentation Dinar - Uljaytu (Type A) 706 (1306) from Ilkhanate is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a stylized representation of the Mongolian emperor Uljaytu, while the reverse side bears the traditional Islamic declaration of faith, "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah." This blending of cultural influences reflects the Ilkhanate's status as a Mongolian khanate that ruled over a predominantly Islamic population in the 14th century.
