Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Tokhtamysh, a prominent leader of the Golden Horde, who is known for his military campaigns and administrative reforms. The coin's design, including the use of the name "Dang" and the mintage of 787 (1385), reflects the influence of Islamic culture and the importance of trade and commerce during this period. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver and weighs 1.03 grams suggests that it was a valuable and widely used currency during its time.
