Comment
Reference: Alram Geschichte Number: 39Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Khingila, the Lord of Zabul, who was a prominent leader of the Alchon Huns, a group of nomadic tribes that played a significant role in the history of Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent during the 5th to 8th centuries. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the Hunnic tribes and their connections to other civilizations of the time.
