One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an inscription in the Mongolian language, which is a rare feature for coins from the Golden Horde. The inscription "Dang" means "power" or "strength" in Mongolian, and it highlights the influence of Mongolian culture on the currency of the Golden Horde. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's production was a common practice in the region during that time period.
