Comment
These coins are dated in two calendars: Year 5 of the Chinese cyclical calendar (obverse) and Year 1346 of the Hijri calendar (reverse).Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Arabic and Chinese design elements. The Arabic legend on the coin is written in a stylized script, and the outlined rays surrounding the central image give the coin a distinctive look. This blend of cultures reflects the rich history of exchange and cultural exchange along the Silk Road, which passed through Sinkiang Province.
