This ornamental dirham coin from the Golden Horde period is notable for its unique design and historical significance. The coin features intricate ornamentation without any inscriptions, setting it apart from typical coins of the time. Its silver composition and relatively light weight of 1.23 grams suggest it was likely intended for circulation among merchants and traders in the region. The absence of inscriptions, known as "anepigraphic," indicates that this coin may have been produced during a transitional period in the Golden Horde's minting practices.
