Interesting fact
The "Trident Tamgha" Dirham coin from the Golden Horde is an interesting piece of history because it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences. The coin's design includes a trident symbol, which is a common motif in Mongolian culture, but it also includes Arabic script and the name of the Mongolian ruler, Ghazan Khan, in Persian. This blending of cultures reflects the diverse nature of the Golden Horde, which was a Mongolian khanate that ruled over a vast territory that included present-day Russia, Ukraine, and parts of Central Asia.
