Note: The Ilkhanids were a Mongol khanate that ruled over Persia and adjacent territories during the 13th and 14th centuries. Abu Sa’id Bahadur was one of the last rulers of the Ilkhanate, known for his efforts to stabilize the empire amidst internal strife and external threats. Coins like these, minted in Samsun, provide valuable insights into the Ilkhanid Empire’s administrative and economic activities in Anatolia. They served as a medium of exchange and facilitated trade within the Ilkhanid territories. This AR One Dirham coin serves as a tangible artifact of Ilkhanid rule in Anatolia, offering glimpses into the region’s socio-economic and political landscape during this period.
