Comment

Two varieties of the legend for this type exist: regular x'g'n and backwards x'g'n. Thos with a regular x'g'n have the end tail of the word pointing to the bottom, and those with a backwards x'g'n have the end tail of the word pointing to the top.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used during a time of great cultural and economic exchange along the Silk Road, connecting the East and West and facilitating the spread of ideas, religions, and technologies.
