| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold Kufic-influenced script, arranged in horizontal registers across the flan. The legend references the ruler Qabul Khan and his authority over Badakhshan. The script is deeply struck with characteristic angular forms, filling the field to the irregular coin edges. Dotted ornamental separators appear between inscription lines. The overall style is consistent with late Chagataid provincial hammered coinage. |

| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic religious inscription in bold hammered script, arranged in horizontal registers. The Shahada formula is clearly legible, reading the Islamic profession of faith attributing sole divinity to Allah and affirming Muhammad as His messenger. The legend fills the irregular flan with minimal border decoration. The strike is characteristically uneven, with some areas of weakness at the periphery typical of Chagataid provincial issues. Dotted separators punctuate the inscription lines. |
