| Obverse description | Central field bears multiple lines of Arabic script in a cursive style, arranged horizontally across the flan. The legend is enclosed within a beaded border running along the coin's irregular circumference. The inscription, typical of Anatolian beylik coinage, likely contains the ruler's name and titles. The hammered flan shows characteristic irregular edges and uneven strike depth. |

| Reverse description | Central field features a prominent six-pointed star (hexagram) formed by two interlocking triangles, a motif occasionally found on medieval Anatolian beylik coinage. Arabic inscriptions fill the areas between the points of the star and extend into the surrounding field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border following the irregular outline of the hammered flan. The strike is bold but uneven, consistent with hand-hammered medieval silver coinage. |
