Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a crowned bust of a ruler, which suggests that it may have been issued during a time of monarchical rule in the Principality of Chach. The lack of a cross on the coin may indicate that it was issued during a period of religious turmoil or change, as the cross was a common symbol used on coins during the Middle Ages to represent Christianity. The fact that the mint is unknown and the date range is uncertain suggests that there may be some mystery or controversy surrounding the coin's origins and history.
