Interesting fact

This coin was minted during the reign of Abaqa Khan, who ruled the Golden Horde from 1266 to 1282. The coin features Arabic inscriptions and geometric designs typical of Islamic coins from that period. Its silver content and weight suggest it was used as a standard unit of exchange in trade networks across Eastern Europe and Central Asia during the late 13th century.
