Interesting fact

This ornamental dirham coin from the Golden Horde period is notable for its unique design featuring intricate patterns and motifs characteristic of Bulgharian artistry. The absence of inscriptions makes it particularly rare and valuable among collectors due to its historical significance as a transitional piece between the Mongol Empire's coinage system and the emergence of local minting traditions in Eastern Europe during the late 13th century.
