Comment
The host coin for the S-tamgha of Qaidu countermark, which is on both the obverse and reverse, is of an undetermined dirham.Interesting fact
This coin features a unique tamgha countermark, which was likely added during its circulation period. The tamgha symbol was commonly used in Mongol and Turkic numismatics to indicate authenticity and authority.
