Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made during the reign of Nuh ibn Asad, who was the last ruler of the Samanid dynasty. Despite being the last ruler, he was known for his efforts to revive the Samanid Empire's economy and military, which had been in decline for some time. This coin, which was made of copper and weighed 2.32 grams, was likely used in everyday transactions and could have been used to purchase goods such as food, clothing, and other necessities.
