Interesting fact
The United Qarakhanid Khaganate was a Turkic khaganate that existed from the 8th to the 14th century. It was founded by Bilge Kul Qadir Khan, a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad's companion, Khalid ibn al-Walid. The Qarakhanid dynasty was known for its military conquests, cultural achievements, and religious tolerance. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an inscription in the Old Uyghur language, which was used by the Qarakhanid rulers and their subjects. The inscription includes the name of the ruler, Kuj-Tegin, and the date of minting, 423 (1032). This coin is a rare and valuable artifact that provides insight into the history and culture of the Qarakhanid dynasty.
