Interesting fact

The Dirham coin is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Mangu Timur, who was a prominent leader of the Golden Horde, a Mongol khanate that ruled over much of Eastern Europe and Central Asia during the 13th century. The coin's design and materials, such as the use of silver and the anonymous minting, also reflect the economic and cultural influences of the time.
