| Reverse description | A two-line Arabic religious inscription in Kufic-influenced script occupies the central field, enclosed within a raised square cartouche. An additional line of text appears above the square frame, partially visible near the upper edge. The inscription reads 'huwa al-hayy al-thaqi' (He is alive), a divine epithet. The square cartouche sits within a plain circular field bounded by the irregular flan edge, consistent with the anonymous coinage of the Bulghar mint under the Golden Horde. |
