| Reverse description | The dynastic tamgha of the Giray dynasty is prominently displayed in the upper portion of the field, serving as the principal heraldic device. Below the tamgha, the mint name (Bakhchysarai) and the regnal year are inscribed in Arabic script. The flan is irregular with a slightly uneven surface, consistent with the hammered production technique of Crimean Khanate beshlik coinage. The strike is moderately sharp, with some areas of weakness typical of this denomination. |
