Obverse description Central field displays a multi-line Arabic legend in Naskh script arranged horizontally across the flan, proclaiming the royal title and name of the issuing khan. The inscription is framed by decorative floral or pellet ornaments positioned to the left and right of the central text block, typical of Golden Horde coinage of this period. A linear border encircles the composition, partially visible along the lower portion of the irregularly shaped flan. The die-struck lettering is bold and deeply impressed, with characteristic Mongol-era stylistic conventions. The overall design follows the purely epigraphic tradition of Islamic coinage, with no figural imagery.
