Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Qader Berdi, 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 and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, with the name "Dang" meaning "money" in the Mongolian language and the use of Arabic script on the coin's reverse side. Additionally, the coin's silver content and relatively small weight suggest that it was intended for everyday use in trade and commerce, providing a glimpse into the economic practices and standards of the era.
