Dear Konstantin, I can read the mint on the margin of left photo:
ضرب قـِرق يـِر , durib Qirq-Yer (modern-day Chufut-Kale, Crimea).
Qırq Yer (قلعة قـِرق يـِر), Chufut-Kale (چوفوت کاله) is a medieval city-fortress in the Crimean Mountains that now lies in ruins. It is a national monument of Crimean Karaites culture just 3 km east of Bakhchisaray.

thanks aws22. This will make it easier to find the ruler when comparing stamps in the Zeno database, perhaps it is Mengli Giray I.
