Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Timur Qutluq, also known as Ulugh Beg II, who was the Khan of the Golden Horde from 1397 to 1407. He was known for his efforts to reform the Mongol Empire and restore its former glory, and this coin may have been part of those efforts.
