Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 01/31/2023 2:46 pm I'm pretty sure this is a Juchid Mongol coin. It's 16mm and 1.3g. There are many photos and listings on zeno and so far I have had no luck narrowing down an attribution. Report this Post to the Staff

JohnConduitt Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 725 Posts	Posted 01/31/2023 7:30 pm I think it's Tokhtamysh Khan, Sarai mint. The reverse needs rotating 90 degrees clockwise. It has a date at the bottom, 789. https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=227714 https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=224831 https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=263544 Edited by JohnConduitt 01/31/2023 8:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
ttkoo Pillar of the Community Australia 2570 Posts	Posted 01/31/2023 7:35 pm The obverse has (IMO) the look of a Yarmaq - Toqta - (Qrim mint). I can't make out any tamgha on the reverse. This one has similarities with the obverse. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces326866.html The size and weight are on the money. Hopefully someone with more Golden Horde experience will chime in Edit : Totally missed the date. definitely 78? maybe 9, which eliminates my theory. Nicely spotted, John. The Ox moves slowly, but the Earth is patient. Edited by ttkoo 01/31/2023 8:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff
JohnConduitt Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 725 Posts	Posted 01/31/2023 8:12 pm Yes I think 9, as the examples from that date fit. Report this Post to the Staff
