Comment

Y#38.7 is reported for 1334; however, confirmation is needed on how this variety is different from the other two 1334 varieties.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Chinese and Islamic design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of a dragon, which is a traditional Chinese symbol, while the reverse side features an Arabic inscription in the style of Islamic calligraphy. This blending of cultural influences reflects the rich history and diversity of Xinjiang Province, where the coin was minted.
