Reverse description Central field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription in Naskh script set within a square cartouche, identifying the issuing ruler as Kerim Berdi Khan. Pellets are distributed between lines of text as decorative separators, a stylistic feature common to Golden Horde dirhams of this period. Above the cartouche, a horizontal line with additional cursive Arabic script is partially visible, likely containing a mint or date formula, though poorly preserved due to the irregular strike. The flan edges are uneven and weakly struck in places, characteristic of hammered aqche coinage of the early 15th century.
