Obverse description Central field bearing a two-line Arabic religious legend in cursive naskh script, reading 'al-minnatu lillah' (Blessing to God), set within an oval cartouche formed by a raised linear border. The cartouche is surrounded by a broad band of raised pellets arranged in a continuous decorative border encircling the entire flan. The coin is struck on an irregular, somewhat oval hammered flan exhibiting characteristic die-struck relief typical of early 19th-century Caucasian khanate coinage. A pierced hole is visible at the left edge of the flan, consistent with use as a pendant or jewelry piece.
