Interesting fact

The Qurlugh Tabgach Khan ND (1171-1179) coin from the Qarakhanids of Tirmidh (Qarakhanid apanages) is interesting because it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features Arabic script and the name of the ruler, while the reverse side features a stylized Mongolian tamga symbol, highlighting the cultural exchange and fusion that occurred during the Mongol Empire's expansion into Central Asia.
