| Obverse description | Central field bearing multiple lines of Arabic script in a bold, cursive hand typical of Ilkhanid-era epigraphy, arranged in horizontal registers across the flan. The inscription, rendered in raised relief against a flat field, contains the ruler's name and titles. The irregular flan edge, characteristic of hammered medieval Islamic coinage, shows slight weakness at the margins. The overall style reflects the epigraphic tradition of Transoxiana in the early 14th century. |

| Reverse description | Central field displaying multi-line Arabic inscription arranged within a rectangular cartouche, with additional text in the surrounding field. The legend, struck in bold relief, likely contains the Shahada or mint and date formulae consistent with Ilkhanid and post-Ilkhanid monetary conventions of Transoxiana. Dotted border elements are partially visible along the inner margin. The hammered flan shows characteristic irregular edges and surface granularity consistent with silver coinage of this period and region. |
