Uljaytu's reign saw the Ilkhanate's administrative apparatus reach deep into Anatolia, where Artuqid client rulers continued striking copper in the name of their Mongol overlords. This piece is a product of that arrangement — a local fals acknowledging Ilkhanid suzerainty rather than being struck at a central mint. Uljaytu himself converted to Twelver Shia Islam in 1310, a politically charged move that alienated Sunni subjects and briefly reshaped the theological framing of official coinage before he reversed course under pressure.
