| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a frontal enthroned figure depicted in a stylized, hieratic manner, seated cross-legged with both arms raised or extended, wearing a crown or elaborate headdress. To the left of the figure stands a tall staff or sceptre rendered in a beaded or columnar style. The entire design is executed in low relief in the hammered tradition, with an irregular beaded border encircling the field. The portrayal reflects the continuation of earlier Ilkhanid and post-Mongol iconographic conventions adapted for Turkmen coinage. |
