| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic legend in a bold, somewhat crude hammered calligraphic style typical of late Golden Horde coinage. The inscription is arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, with pellets or decorative punctuation marks flanking the text. The irregular flan edges and flat relief are characteristic of provincial hammered silver dirhams of this period. No figural imagery is present; the design is entirely epigraphic. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a multi-line Arabic inscription in the field, similarly arranged in horizontal registers with accompanying pellets as decorative separators. The legend references the ruling khan and mint or date information in the conventional Golden Horde formulaic style. The hammered strike has resulted in slight weakness at the periphery, with the flan showing characteristic irregular shaping. The overall style is consistent with late Golden Horde silver coinage struck at Hajji Tarkhan. |
