Dirham 'Dang' - Tochtamysh Saray al-Jadida Mint

Tochtamysh briefly reunified the fractured Golden Horde in the 1380s, but his reign was defined by catastrophic overreach — after sacking Moscow in 1382, he turned against his former patron Timur, triggering a series of devastating invasions that would ultimately destroy Saray al-Jadida and end the Horde as a functioning political entity. This coin predates that unraveling by just a few years, struck at a moment when his authority over the western steppe was at its peak.

The Saray al-Jadida mint was among the most productive in the Horde's network, active through multiple reigns and khans.
