| Obverse description | At centre, the national coat of arms of Uzbekistan, depicting a rising sun above a landscape with mountains and a river, flanked by two Simurgh (mythical birds) with wings spread, framed by a wreath of cotton branches on the left and wheat stalks on the right, tied at the base with a ribbon in the national colours. A ring of twelve five-pointed stars surrounds the composition, representing the twelve provinces of Uzbekistan. The Cyrillic legend ЎЗБЕКИСТОН РЕСПУБЛИКАСИ (Republic of Uzbekistan) arcs along the upper periphery. |

| Additional information |
The tiyin subunit was introduced alongside the sum in 1994 as Uzbekistan established its own currency following independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. Inflation rendered the lower denominations nearly worthless almost immediately after issue, and by the late 1990s the 50 tiyin had effectively vanished from circulation — not withdrawn, simply ignored. The coins were minted but rarely spent.
