Islamic Coins
The term “Islamic” is associated with the Empires, Sultanates, Khanates, Caliphates, and territories associated with the followers of Islam. The general time frame is approximately from 632AD to 1453 AD.

The condensed history of Islamic civilization is a story with three main chapters: (1) the initial rise of an immense empire rivaling Charlemagne's, (2) a period of cataclysmic struggles between the Crusaders and their opponents, and (3) the capture of Constantinople in 1453.

The subcategories here are chiefly based on Dynastic affiliations.
