Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Yarmaq - Tole Buqa coin with Uyghur inscription is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and Mongolian influences in its design. The coin's inscription is written in Uyghur, a Turkic language spoken in the region, and it includes the name of the Mongolian emperor, Qrim, in the Uyghur script. 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.
