Aanvullende informatie

Maqsud Giray's reign was short and turbulent — he ruled twice, and this issue dates to his second tenure, which unfolded against the backdrop of the Russo-Turkish War that broke out in 1768. The Khanate's billon coinage of this period reflects chronic silver depletion; the base alloy was no accident of minting but a deliberate response to decades of fiscal strain under Ottoman suzerainty.

Within five years of this striking, the 1774 Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca would sever the Khanate's formal ties to the Porte, setting in motion the political dissolution that ended with Russian annexation in 1783.
