Interesting fact

The Dirham "Dang" - Tochtamysh (Saray al-Jadida) 790 (1388) from Golden Horde is an interesting coin because it was issued during the reign of Tochtamysh, a powerful khan who ruled the Golden Horde from 1380 to 1406. He was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to centralize power, which led to the creation of a unified currency system. The coin is made of silver and weighs 1.5 grams, which was a significant amount for a coin at that time. It's a rare and valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political systems of the Golden Horde during the 14th century.
