Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ahmad ibn Muhammad, who was the founder of the Afrighids of Kath, a dynasty that ruled over the Khwarezmid Empire in the 10th century. The coin features an inscription in Arabic that reads "al-Sultanu al-Azam" or "the Greatest Sultan," which reflects the power and influence of the Khwarezmid Empire during that time.
