Great Mongols | Copper Dirham
History of the Artifact
The Great Mongols Copper Dirham refers to a series of hammered copper broad-flan coins struck under the early Mongol Empire and its successor khanates, notably at mints such as Samarqand (modern Uzbekistan) around AH 663 (1264 CE). These coins are typified by their large diameter and low weight. These coins were were sometimes silver-washed, though the base metal remained copper/bronze, and their strikes were often crude, perhaps reflecting emergency or regionally-controlled minting. Historically, these issues belong to the mid-13th century when Mongol control over Central Asia was being consolidated and local monetary practices adapting to Mongol rule.
