This type was struck during the Mongol chase of Jalal ad-Din Mingburnu, the last of the Khwarezm Shahs, to the Indus River. Jalal was defeated decisively in spring 1221 in the Battle of the Indus, but to Genghis' great disappointment, the Shah escaped to India. He remained a constant thorn in the Mongols' side until he was assassinated by an unknown Kurd in the Mayyafarikin mountains in 1231.
