Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the second reign of Selim III Giray, who was the Khan of the Crimean Khanate from 1768 to 1771. This was a time of great change and upheaval in the region, as the Crimean Khanate was facing increasing pressure from the Russian Empire. Despite these challenges, the Khanate was able to maintain its independence and continue to issue its own coins, such as the Beshlik - Selim III Giray (Second reign) 1184 (1771) coin.
