Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Aqche Dirham coin is that it was issued during the reign of Shadi Beg, 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 and 14th centuries. The coin's design features an inscription in Arabic that reads "Shadi Beg, Khan of the Golden Horde," indicating its connection to the Mongol Empire. Additionally, the coin's silver content and relatively small weight of 0.8 grams suggest that it was a widely circulating coin used for everyday transactions during that time period.
