Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the second reign of Jani Beg Giray, who was the Khan of the Crimean Khanate from 1628 to 1635. During his reign, the Crimean Khanate was a powerful state that controlled much of the Crimean Peninsula and had significant influence over the surrounding regions. The coin itself is made of silver and weighs 0.22 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin at that time. Despite its small size, the coin is a valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political systems of the Crimean Khanate during the 17th century.
