...and the pics are sideways; rotate both of them 90 degrees anticlockwise to make them "right way up". Mongolian script looks similar to Arabic, but it's written vertically, in Old Chinese fashion.

Thanks to everybody!
One more question: I heard that in the beginning of new Mongolian state the tugriks, like this one, were made in Russia. Is it right?

Very cool coin, love the ying/yang in the center (of course I would!). Wherever it was minted, they did a good design job!

I couldn't find any info on where Mongolian coins were minted, but considering the relationship between the countries and the primitive state of Mongolian economy, even today, I would think that all Mongolian coins, till at least 1990's, were minted in the USSR.
