Note: During the Umayyad Caliphate, under the rule of Marwan II ibn Muhammad, coins were minted as part of the economic system of the caliphate. These coins, often made of bronze or copper, served as a medium of exchange. Marwan II’s reign, marked by internal strife and challenges to Umayyad authority, saw the continuation of coin production to facilitate trade and commerce within the caliphate’s vast territories.
