Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of an unknown ruler in the Principality of Chach, which was a small state that existed in the 7th to 9th centuries in the region of modern-day Uzbekistan. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the ruler's identity, the coin still holds historical significance as a representation of the economic and cultural exchange that took place during that time period.
