Mike Markowitz wrote an article in CoinWeek on Medieval Coinage of Georgia. E-Sylum has an excerpt. (And I present a toot-sized excerpt of the excerpt!). Full article at: https://www.coinbooks.org/v29/esylum_v29n12.html#article22

"The medieval coinage of Georgia reflects a remarkable intersection of cultures, empires, and religious traditions. Located in the Caucasus region between Europe and Asia, Georgia developed a distinctive monetary system during the Middle Ages. Georgian rulers issued coins influenced by Byzantine, Islamic, Persian, and Mongol traditions.

At the same time, these coins expressed the identity and authority of the Georgian kingdom."
