Abstract

The main purpose of the Jochi numismatics of the Syrdarya region of the last thirty years of the XIV century, and of this article in particular, is a detailed search for previously unknown local coin issues and their introduction into scientific circulation. The copper Jochi pūl minted in 783/1381–1382 at the mint with the name of khan Kunche was introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. The silver mint of this issuer has already been reported in scientific publications earlier. The events of the late XIV century in the area of the Arys and Syrdarya rivers largely remain a white spot in the history of the Golden Horde and the state of Timur Tamerlan. The time of Kunche’s reign as a khan in the Syrdarya lands can be limited to 782–784/1380–1383.
