Russia, Golden Horde, Jani Beg Khan (1341-1357), AR Dirhem, New Sarai, MI-1521

Description

This coin was issued under
Jani Beg Mahmud Khan
(AH 742-758,
1341-1357 AD
),
Blue Horde of Western Kipchak,
Golden Horde
, in present-day western Russia.
It was minted in Sarai al Judid (=
New Sarai
).
Golden Horde is also known as
Kipchak Khanate
or as
Ulus of Jochi.
After the death of Batu ibn Juji (AH 621-653, 1224-1255 AD, the founder of Golden Horde),
his dynasty flourished  until 1359 AD
.  The Horde's military power peaked during the reign of
Ghiyath al din Mohammed Uzbeg Khan (AH 712-742, 1312-1341 AD).
The territory of the Golden Horde at
its peak extended
from
Siberia
and
Central Asia
to parts
of
Eastern Europe
from the
Urals
to the
Danube
in the west, and from the
Black Sea
to the
Caspian Sea
in the south,
"New Sarai" (
Sarai al Judid
) is believed to have been at what is now
Kolobovka
(formerly Tsarev).
It was about
180 km northwest of Old Sarai
(Sarai Batu).
It had probably succeeded Sarai Batu as the
capital of the Golden Horde
by the mid-14th century.
Kolobovka is located at (
