Mamluk sultans
had their own emblem or blazon on their coinage;and in
his introduction of :"The coinage of the Mamluk sultans of
Egypt and
Syria"
Balog said:".....The Mamluk sultans introduced a new feature on the coinage:they
engraved their coats of arms on their coins,mostly on the copper fulus..."...."Emblems ....appear to have been adopted by moslems already during the Crusades by Ayyubids princes...."
So the fleur de lis can be found on other coinage,especially crusades.[in my
Collection i have also umayyad']
