    Very cool looking coin. You have to love gold. I like the geometric design.

    How much do they weigh?

    @Theodosius yes I love callgraphy and design on these . The Abu said coin weight 9 gram and abaqa khan weights 6 gram

    I love Mongol gold coins alot . I have another one I will post tonight that one is 4 gram and from time of gaykhatu khan of Mongol ilkhanid the interesting thing about his coin is he uses Mongolian script on his coin while the above coins use the Islamic Arabic scripts.

    Too early for Krause-Mishler, whose coverage begins with the year 1601. No KM#.

    These coins are from the 1200s-1300s.
