Between ca. 1240–1243 a series of remarkable dirhams were struck in Kaykhusraw’s name depicting a lion and sun. Generally, Islamic traditions forbid representations of living things so it is very unusual to find such iconography on Islamic coins. Several explanations of the lion and sun have been offered to suggest that the images represent the constellation Leo, the astrological sign of Kaykhusraw’s beloved Georgian wife Tamar or that the lion represents Kaykhusraw and the sun Tamar.  An article by Abdül Halim Varol (link) recognises different types related to different mints.  In general, coins minted in Siwas have a square text container on the reverse, whereas coins minted in Konya have no such box.
