GREAT MONGOLS: temp. Chingiz Khan, 1206-1227, AE jital, [Ghazna], ND, A-3713, Tye-239, anonymous, with title al-khaqan / al-'adil / al-a'zam on obverse, the 'Abbasid caliph al-Nasir on reverse, Fine. This and other jitals of the period probably contain a small amount of silver and may also have had a very light silver wash. This type is the only coin that is reasonably common and can be securely assigned to the lifetime of Genghis Khan. This type is believed to have been struck AH618-619 / 1221, during the Mongol chase of Mangubarni to the Indus River, when a Mongol military base was established at or near Ghazna. Formally Album number 1969.

Estimate: 100-150 USD
