The Golden Horde coin , featuring a bird on the left and the inscription "Strong money" in Mongolian, was issued during the reign of Toqta (also known as Tokta), who was the Khan of the Golden Horde from 1289 to 1312. This coin was made of copper and was used as a standard circulation coin during that time. It's interesting to note that the Golden Horde was a Mongol khanate that ruled over much of Eastern Europe and Central Asia during the 13th and 14th centuries, and its currency was used extensively throughout its territories.
