Beschrijving voorzijde Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic inscription in angular Kufic-influenced script, reading the royal title and name of the issuing khan. The legend is framed by a distinctive arched cartouche or niche at the top, characteristic of Golden Horde coinage of this period. A border of raised pellets encircles the design along the upper periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The lettering is boldly struck in raised relief against a flat field, with the khan's epithet and name distributed across three lines.

Aanvullende informatie

Jani Beg's reign over the Golden Horde (1342–1357) marked a period of relative administrative stability, and the Saray al-Jadida mint was its principal monetary engine. This issue dates to a particularly grim year: 1352 coincides with the Black Death tearing through the steppe and the Volga trade corridor, killing an estimated fraction of the Horde's population that some scholars consider demographically catastrophic. The plague likely disrupted minting output mid-cycle, making output volumes from this specific year difficult to reconstruct with confidence.

Sagdeeva #252 places this squarely within a well-documented type, cross-referenced in Zeno's catalog under 6786.
