Note: Salah al-Din Yusuf I, commonly known as Saladin, was a Kurdish Muslim military leader and statesman who founded the Ayyubid dynasty and is renowned for his role in the reconquest of Jerusalem during the Crusades. Nasir al-Din Artuq Arslan was a significant ruler of the Artuqid dynasty, known for his efforts to maintain stability and promote cultural and economic development in the region. Coins from his reign provide valuable insights into the political and economic landscape of Anatolia & al-Jazira during the late medieval period. The Mint of Mardin, located in present-day southeastern Turkey, was one of the principal mints under Artuqid rule. Coins minted here played a crucial role in facilitating trade and commerce within the region and beyond its borders.
