| Aversbeschreibung | Hammered copper fals of irregular round flan, the obverse field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged horizontally across the coin. The legend, executed in a somewhat crude Kufic-influenced script characteristic of Central Asian Islamic coinage of the 12th century, proclaims the Shahada and records the mint and date of issue (538 AH). The flat field shows significant surface porosity and corrosion consistent with age, and the flan edges are irregular due to the hand-hammered production method. |

Yelü Dashi founded the Western Liao — known in Islamic sources as the Qara Khitai — after fleeing the Jurchen Jin conquest of the Liao dynasty in 1125, leading a small retinue westward across the steppe before carving out a Central Asian empire that eventually stretched from the Tarim Basin to the Syr Darya. His coinage continued the cash tradition of his ancestral Liao dynasty almost without interruption, a deliberate political act signaling continuity with the Khitan imperial line he had left behind. The Jurchen, meanwhile, were issuing their own cash in the east.
Surviving examples attributable to his reign are scarce in Western collections — most institutional holdings derive from Soviet-era archaeological work in modern Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.
