| Additional information |
Jani Beg's reign over the Golden Horde coincided with the Black Death tearing through the western steppe in the late 1340s, and his army's siege of Caffa in 1346 is the event most historians credit with carrying plague into Europe via Genoese merchants. The Bazjin mint — a secondary copper-producing facility operating under his authority — continued striking through this period, which makes even routine issues from these years historically loaded.
The trefoil type pul is documented in Davidovich and cross-referenced in Zeno's corpus, but die studies remain incomplete. Attribution to Bazjin rests on mint name placement conventions established across the Jani Beg copper series.
