Interesting fact
The coin is quite interesting! One fascinating fact about it is that it was issued during the reign of Muhammad ibn Khut-Tegin, who was the founder of the Ghaznavid Empire. The Ghaznavid Empire was a Persianate Muslim empire that existed from the 10th to the 12th century in what is now Afghanistan, Pakistan, and parts of India. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and it's a great example of the rich history and heritage of the region.
