ISIS announced its gold dinar in 2014 as part of a declared return to an early Islamic monetary system, explicitly rejecting what it called the "satanic" global financial order. The coins were introduced with a propaganda video in 2015 and were intended for actual circulation within controlled territory in Syria and Iraq — not as collectibles.
Whether these circulated meaningfully is disputed. Most examples that have surfaced in Western markets are believed to have left ISIS-held territory through smuggling networks, making provenance both murky and legally complex in many jurisdictions.
