Name[edit]

User:Sundru recently changed all the spellings in this article to panam. I reverted because the English spelling on the coins was fanam. Was this change made because of the spelling of this denomination in the local language(s)? It would be very useful if Sundru could explain why s/he made the change. From the coins, I can only read the Arabic lettering, which appears to start with an f (ف)
