This coin features a unique design depicting a shamrock, which is a rare motif for coins from the Golden Horde period. The shamrock symbol likely represents the Irish heritage of the ruler, Muhammad Uzbeg, who had connections to Ireland through his wife. This unusual design element makes this coin particularly noteworthy among other coins from the same era and region.
