Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Khan Jani Beg, who was the 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 features an inscription in the Mongolian language and is adorned with Islamic motifs, reflecting the cultural and religious influences of the time.
