1 Fals - Ahmad b. al-Hasan al-Kushani

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ahmad b. al-Hasan (al-Kushani), who was the ruler of the United Qarakhanid Khaganate (Qarakhanid dynasty) in the early 11th century. The Qarakhanid dynasty was a Turkic dynasty that ruled over a vast territory that included present-day Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and parts of Russia, China, and Afghanistan. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the region during that time, and its copper composition was a common material used for coinage in many ancient civilizations.
