| Reverse description | The reverse presents an Arabic multi-line inscription distributed across the central field, consistent with the formulaic legends used on Crimean Khanate coinage of the period. The text likely includes mint and date references, though the strike is weak and the flan irregular, rendering portions of the legend partially legible. The field shows typical surface granularity and die wear associated with hammered silver aspres of the Kaffa mint. No figural or ornamental devices are visible on this side. |
