This coin is an example of a rare type of Dirham coin produced during the Golden Horde period. It features anepigraphic (inscriptionless) design, which is unusual for coins of this era. The lack of inscriptions suggests it may have been intended for local circulation within the Bulghar region, rather than being part of a larger monetary system. Its silver composition and relatively small weight of 1.3 grams indicate it was likely used for everyday transactions in the 13th century.
