Additional information

Jani Beg ruled the Golden Horde at its political apex, but 1347 was a year of catastrophic disruption — the Black Death tore through the western steppe and Crimean trading ports that same year, carried in part by Mongol siege operations at Caffa. Whether the plague materially interrupted production at Saray al-Jadida is unknown, but coinage continued, and this issue belongs to a mint that had only recently superseded Old Saray as the Horde's primary production center under Uzbek Khan.
