Additional information

Minted at Gulistan in 1362, this dang falls within the chaotic succession crisis that followed the death of Berdibek in 1359 — a period historians of the Golden Horde call the "Great Troubles," during which over two dozen khans contested the throne in roughly twenty years. Murid held the Sarai region only briefly, and Gulistan-struck issues under his name are accordingly scarce. The Frähn and Sagdeeva references both treat this type as a minor emission rather than a sustained series.
