Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Dirham "Dang" coin is that it was issued during the reign of Jani Beg, who was the Khan of the Golden Horde from 1341 to 1357. The coin features the name "Jani Beg" in the Mongolian script on one side, and the Arabic inscription "al-sultanu al-azam" (meaning "the great king") on the other side. This coin was made of silver and was used as a standard circulation coin during Jani Beg's rule.
