Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Muhammad ibn Ibrahim, who was the ruler of the Western Qarakhanid Khaganate, a Turkic dynasty that ruled parts of Central Asia and the Middle East during the 11th century. The coin features the name of the ruler and the date of issue in both Arabic and Persian, reflecting the multicultural nature of the Qarakhanid Empire. Additionally, the use of gold in the coin's production indicates the wealth and prosperity of the empire at the time.
