Comment
Hammered coinage from the second reign of Selim Giray IInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Selim I Giray, who was the first Khan of the Crimean Khanate to issue coins with his own name and title, rather than using the name of the Ottoman Sultan. This indicates the growing independence and power of the Crimean Khanate during this time period.
