The descendant of Turkic slaves, `Ala al-Din Muhammad built a vast but short-lived empire in Central Asia.  Genghis Khan sent emissaries to Khwarezm to open diplomatic relations with him.  Muhammad made the famous mistake of executing those emissaries, and as a result brought on the full wrath of Genghis Khan.  Genghis Khan's response was considered brutal even by Mongol standards.  The Khwarezm Empire was obliterated, completely annihilating Khwarezm cities, amidst what is believed to be the bloodiest massacres to occur in world until the 20th century

======================================

COMBINED POSTAGE:
USA: flat $5 fee per package, no additional postage for additional coins.
Worldwide: charged at actual cost (though eBay) per package, price should be the same or nearly the same no matter how many coins. 

30 day returns. 
All coins unconditionally guaranteed genuine without time limit.

Do not pay until it is time to ship:   If you think you might buy additional items within the next week, you should pay when you are done with all of your purchases.   In order to maintain a preferred commission schedule, eBay expects me to ship items within one day of receiving payment. When I receive payment I ship as soon as possible.

Ebay may not automatically apply combined postage.  I will send invoices when needed.  If I don't, just ask for an invoice with combined postage.  If you pay for your items without the combined postage, I can just refund the extra.   

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS, PLEASE NOTE:  Direct international shipping is calculated by eBay at actual cost. In general, the price for an international package is around $16.  It may cost a lot less for people in other countries to send the same package to me, but that is my cost from where I am.  There may also be a problem with with eBay combining postage when buying multiple coins.   Postage to most international locations should be the same for one coin or multiple coins.  It doesn't matter how many coins in the shipment, the postage should be pretty much the same as for one coin.  If it is significantly higher, then ask for an invoice with combined postage and I will provide one.
