62.2 g (2 oz). (born 1138 in Tikrit, died March 4, 1193 in Damascus) – founder of the Ayjubid dynasty, ruling from 1174 to 1193. He was the son of Ayjub ibn Shazi, Kurd serving with his brother Shirkuh first to Seljukom and then to Zengid. After the death of Nur ad-Din in 1174, Saladin used Egypt as a base for the control or subjugation of the Zengid, Arthur and Begteginid estates over the next 12 years, creating a state stretching from Egypt through Levant to Al-Jazeera. In 1187, he inflicted a devastating defeat on the troops of the Kingdom of Jerusalem at Hittin, after which he captured almost all of the Crusader State lands, including Jerusalem. In response to the loss of the Holy Land in Europe, a crusade was convened, which, between 1189 and 192, took Saladin Akka, Jaffa and Askalon, but proved unable to conquer Jerusalem. The truce concluded in September 1192 confirmed most of Saladin’s conquests, giving the crusaders only the Palestinian coastline up to Jaffa. After his death, Saladin became the subject of numerous works of both historical and literary character, which usually depicted his refined and romanticized image. His person is also used in today’s Islamic world as an example of the struggle for Muslim Palestine. This coin was struck from 2 ounces of silver and has a diameter of 45 mm.
