| Reverse description | Central field features a stylized eight-pointed sun or star device with radiating pointed rays, accompanied by a crescent motif above, both rendered in low relief. Below the celestial devices, a three-line Arabic and Chagatai Turkic inscription occupies the lower portion of the field, stating the denomination '2 1/2 fulus Tenga'. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded or dotted inner border, with a plain outer rim. The overall style reflects the provincial, hand-engraved die-cutting tradition of the Khivan Khanate in its final years. |
