| Reverse description | Central field displays the Arabic word 'al-mulk' (الملك, meaning 'sovereignty' or 'the kingdom') enclosed within a plain oval cartouche, rendered in a bold, angular script characteristic of Golden Horde Bulghar mint production. Flanking foliate or vegetal ornamental elements appear at the upper portion of the cartouche, consistent with the decorative conventions of this anonymous type. The surrounding field is plain, and the flan edge is irregular and slightly ragged, reflecting the hand-hammered production technique. No mint name or ruler's name appears, placing this firmly within the anonymous 'Al-mulk' series attributed to the Bulghar mint. |
