One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Dirham - Yusuf b. Harun ND (1005-1032) from Qarakhanid dynasty (Islamic states) made of Silver weighing 4.14 g is that it features an inscription in Arabic that translates to "Muhammad is the Messenger of God" on one side, and the name of the ruler, Yusuf b.
