Pul 'Five-rays star with a point / 16 puls=dang' - temp. Muhammad Uzbeg Saray al-Jadidah mint

Muhammad Uzbeg Khan's reign marked the definitive Islamicization of the Golden Horde, and his copper pul coinage reflects the administrative effort to standardize fractional exchange across a vast territory where silver dirhams dominated long-distance trade but everyday markets needed something smaller. Saray al-Jadidah — the "New Saray" — had by the early 720s AH become the principal mint for this flood of small copper.

The 16-pul-to-dang ratio stated on the coin itself is the detail worth noting: denominations explicitly inscribed on Mongol copper are far from universal, and its presence here suggests a deliberate attempt to enforce exchange rates that the market had not always respected.
