Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Alchon Huns' Drachm - Khingila (Hadda) coin is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Hun influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a traditional Greek-style bust of a king, while the reverse side features a Hun-style horse and rider. This fusion of styles reflects the cultural exchange and syncretism that occurred during the period of Hun rule in Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent.
