[BUNJANG] Western Liao Yelu Dashi Leaf-Coin Type Coinage (1124-1143) / 1124~1143년 중국 서요 야율대석 엽전형 주화
This coin was issued by Yelu Dashi (耶律大石), the founder of the Western Liao (Qara Khitai) in Central Asia after the fall of the Liao Dynasty. Previously attributed to the Kara-Khanid Khanate, recent research confirms it as a unique Western Liao currency, bearing an Arabic transliteration of Yelu Dashi's title. This artifact is considered a key piece symbolizing his authority as a conqueror and his philosophy of ruling, which integrated Eastern and Western cultures.
### Collectible Value
This currency is a remarkable "cultural fusion," featuring Islamic Arabic inscriptions on the Eastern traditional 'round-hole square' (방구전) format, holding a unique position in world numismatic history. Among the tangible remnants of the Western Liao, surviving specimens are extremely rare. It serves as a primary source testifying to the dynamism of the empire established in Central Asia by the descendants of the fallen Liao Dynasty, possessing the highest collectible value.

1. 역사적 배경
요나라 멸망 후 중앙아시아로 이동하여 서요(Qara Khitai)를 건국한 야율대석(耶律大石)이 발행한 엽전형 주화입니다.
오랫동안 카라한 왕조의 화폐로 알려졌으나 최근 연구를 통해 야율대석의 칭호를 아랍어로 음차한 서요의 고유 화폐임이 밝혀졌으며, 이는 정복 군주로서의 권위와 동서양 문화를 융합한 통치 철학을 상징하는 핵심 유물로 평가됩니다.
2. 수집적 가치
동양의 전통적인 방구전 형식에 이슬람의 아랍어 명문을 새겨 넣은 '문화적 융합'이 돋보이는 화폐로서 세계 화폐사에서 매우 독보적인 위치를 차지합니다.
서요의 실물 유적 중에서도 잔존 수량이 극히 적은 희귀 기물이며, 멸망한 요나라의 후예가 중앙아시아에 세운 제국의 역동성을 증언하는 사료로서 최상급의 소장 가치를 지닙니다.
