| Additional information |
Berdi Beg ruled the Golden Horde for barely two years before being murdered by his brother Kulpa in 1359, one of the opening moves in the prolonged succession crisis that would eventually fracture the khanate irreparably. His coins were struck at Saray al-Jadida — New Sarai — the Volga capital rebuilt by Özbeg Khan in the 1330s to supplant the older city upstream. The brevity of the reign makes any attributable issue scarce by default.
