Obverse description Hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in the field, reading the ruler's name and titles: Selim Giray Khan ibn Devlet Giray Khan. The inscription is arranged in two registers separated by a horizontal rule, executed in a typical late Crimean Khanate calligraphic style. The irregular flan edges, characteristic of hand-struck coinage, frame the deeply impressed legend. No figural imagery is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic convention.
