Obverse description Central field bearing a bold Arabic-script legend in two lines reading the regnal formula with the Hijri date 1277, set within a circular border. The script is rendered in a cursive Nasta'liq style typical of Central Asian hammered copper coinage of the period. The irregular flan exhibits characteristic surface texture and slight relief variations inherent to hand-struck production. Decorative pellets flank the inscription in the upper portion of the field.

Reverse description Central field displaying a multi-line Arabic-script legend denoting the mint of Khoqand, enclosed within a double-line cartouche or border framing. The inscription is executed in Nasta'liq script, characteristic of Khoqand Khanate copper pul coinage. Multiple pellet ornaments are distributed around the central legend, serving as decorative fillers within the field. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with the hammered coining technique employed at the Khoqand mint during this period.
