1/2 Drachm - Chach Multan

Chach of Alor seized power in Sindh around 631 AD after the death of the last Rai dynasty ruler, founding a short-lived Brahmin ruling house that would govern the lower Indus until the Arab conquest under Muhammad bin Qasim in 711. These fractional silver pieces circulated during precisely that window — a kingdom aware, in its final decades, of sustained Umayyad military pressure from the west. The Multan attribution places production inland, along trade routes connecting the Indus plain to the broader Silk Road network.

Bin Qasim's campaign ended the dynasty in a single season.
