| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized frontal sunface (solar deity mask) occupies the central field, depicting schematic facial features including eyes, nose, and a wide mouth rendered in a bold, primitive artistic style characteristic of Bulghar mint coinage of this period. Ten stylized pointed flames or rays radiate outward from the face, alternating with pellets, filling the surrounding field and approximating a solar disc composition. The design bears no inscriptions or legends, consistent with the anepigraphic classification of this emission. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The anepigraphic "Sun type" dirhams of Bulghar occupy an odd corner of Golden Horde numismatics — struck without a ruler's name at a moment when the khanate's internal succession struggles made attributing coins to any single authority politically inconvenient or simply impossible. Bulghar on the Volga was one of the Horde's primary mints in this period, supplying coinage across a commercial network stretching from the Baltic trade routes to the Black Sea ports.
The absence of an inscription is the diagnostic fact here, not a deficiency. Zeno #10254 places this squarely within a recognized anonymous emission rather than a damaged or illiterate striking.
