| Obverse description | Central field bearing the tamgha (dynastic insignia) of the Giray dynasty of the Crimean Khanate, rendered in a stylized, angular form characteristic of hammered billon coinage of the period. The device is struck on a broadly flan with irregular edges typical of hand-struck production. The surfaces show heavy patination and wear consistent with circulation use. Arabic script legends, though largely illegible on this example, would conventionally surround or accompany the tamgha in the field. |
