Comment
Interesting fact
The coin is a rare and historically significant Dirham coin from the Golden Horde, minted in the 14th century. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an inscription in both Arabic and Mongolian, reflecting the cultural blend of the Golden Horde, which was a Mongol khanate that ruled over a vast territory including present-day Russia, Ukraine, and parts of Central Asia. The Arabic inscription reads "Khayr Pulad" (meaning "Good fortune" or "Good luck"), while the Mongolian inscription reads "Dang" (meaning "Money" or "Currency"). This coin is a unique example of the cultural exchange and blending that occurred during the Mongol Empire's reign.
