| Additional information |
Issued under the Chaghatayid Khan Tarmashirin — whose regnal name "Sanjar" appears on this coinage — these dinars were struck across multiple mints simultaneously, a reflection of the fragmented administrative reality of the Chaghatai Khanate in its final coherent decades. Tarmashirin was unusual among his dynasty for converting to Islam and abandoning the traditional Mongol *yasa*, a decision that alienated the eastern nomadic factions and contributed directly to his overthrow and execution around 1334.
The Tirmidh mint attribution is the rarer of the three.
