Comment
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Berke Khan, who was the first Muslim ruler of the Golden Horde, a Mongol khanate that controlled much of Eastern Europe and Central Asia during the 13th century. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the blending of Mongol and Islamic cultures that occurred during this period.
