Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Muzaffar b. Muhammad, who was the ruler of the Emirate of Darband, a region located in the Islamic Caucasia, during the 12th century. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it is made of copper, which was a common material used for coinage during that time period. Additionally, the coin weighs 5.08 grams, which is relatively light compared to other coins of similar denominations.
