| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a bold multi-line Arabic legend in raised relief, executed in a characteristic Golden Horde Naskh-influenced script. The inscription reads 'Sultan the Just Berdi Beg Khan,' arranged in horizontal registers across the flan. The field displays the typical irregular, slightly concave surface resulting from the hammered production technique. The border is defined by a partial inner ring of raised pellets, visible along the upper arc, enclosing the legend within the available flan area. The coin exhibits natural golden-toned toning with areas of iridescent patina on the silver fabric. |

| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in bold raised relief distributed across several horizontal registers, recording the mint and regnal year. The inscription identifies the place of striking as Saray al-Jadida and the date as 760 AH. The border is framed by a prominent raised inner circle accompanied by a ring of raised pellets running along the left and upper margin, a standard decorative device on Golden Horde silver coinage. The irregular flan edges, typical of hammered production, are clearly visible, and the silver surface retains warm golden-brown toning consistent with age. |
