Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ahmad ibn Muhammad, also known as Warwarliz, who was the ruler of the Ghaznavid Empire from 1010 to 1012 CE. The Ghaznavid Empire was a Persianate Muslim empire that existed from the 10th to the 12th century CE and covered much of the Indian subcontinent, as well as parts of Central Asia and the Middle East. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content and weight suggest that it was a significant denomination in the currency system of the empire.
