Interesting fact

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, making it anepigraphic, which was unusual for coins of that era. Its silver composition and weight of 1.29 grams indicate its value as currency during the time of the Golden Horde, a powerful khanate that ruled over vast territories in Eastern Europe and Central Asia between the 13th and 14th centuries. This coin provides insight into the artistic and economic practices of the region during that period.
