According to Plano Carpini, the Russian handicraftsman, Kozma, made a seal for Güyük Khan.

The prominent French Mongolist, P. Pelliot, translated the Mongolian scripts on the seal later.

[1] During the Yuan dynasty, which ruled Mongolia, the whole of China proper, Tibet and other areas, several new seals were issued for local rulers.

The imperial seal was kept by the Borjigin clan and was brought back to Mongolia when the Yuan court fled north.
