Description
This
pale
gold
dinar
was

al
Daulah
Ibrahim
ibn
Mas'aud
I
(1059-1099
AD)

an
inscription
of the
name
and
titles
of the
ruler
. The
Ghaznavids
were
originally
Turkish
slaves
, and the
Ghaznavid
Empire
reached
its
zenith
during
the
reign
of
Mahmud
(
971-1030

, the
founder
of the
empire
. The
Ghaznavid
Empire
included
what are

.
Zahir
al
Daulah
Ibrahim
was
able
to
renew
the
importance
of the
Ghaznavid
Empire
during
his
reign
, but
it
did
not
match
the
magnificence
of
Mahmud's
reign
.
