Possibly civic coinageInteresting fact
This copper coin from the Golden Horde period features a star-shaped countermark known as a "Pul." The term "ND" likely stands for "Nur ad-Din," referring to the ruler Nur ad-Din Muhammad ibn Oljaitu, who ruled over the Golden Horde during this time. The coin's weight of 1.26 grams was standard for coins issued during the Golden Horde era.
