| Additional information |
Shadi Beg came to power in the Golden Horde around 1400 through the backing of the powerful emir Edigu, who effectively ran the khanate while a succession of puppet khans occupied the throne. The Ordu al-Jadida mint — "the New Horde" — was one of several mobile or semi-permanent minting operations that followed the administrative center of the khanate, making mint attribution for this period genuinely difficult.
Sagdeeva #481 places this type within a narrow production window that corresponds almost exactly to the years Edigu consolidated his grip after the chaos following Timur's devastating 1395–96 campaign through the steppe heartland.
