<p>[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 7421633, member: 84744"]Looking into this more, it seems this tamgha was a fairly generic one used by the family of Batu, <i>starting</i> with Möngke Temür but not exclusively used by him. [USER=109923]@John Conduitt[/USER]'s source on tamghas above notes that it was also used by Toqta, who was Möngke Temür's son. It might also have been used by Möngke Temür's brother, Töda Möngke, or his nephew, Töle-Buqa. <a href="https://mongoliancoins.com/coins_of_mongol_empire_golden_horde.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://mongoliancoins.com/coins_of_mongol_empire_golden_horde.html" rel="nofollow">Nyamaa</a> lists these anonymous types as 1270-1310, and there are <a href="https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=160782" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=160782" rel="nofollow">two</a> <a href="https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=160783" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=160783" rel="nofollow">examples</a> of my coin on Zeno, also not attributed to a particular Khan. Both give the issue to a series from the Bulghar mint, a large trading city that was located at the confluence of the Volga and the Kama rivers, and now a World Heritage site. My coin also exists (more commonly) as a full dang/dirham, e.g. <a href="https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=8457" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=8457" rel="nofollow">https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=8457</a>, where the tooth can occur on either the right or the left beam.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm glad to have taken the time to research this coin more thoroughly![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
