Reverse description Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic mint and date inscription arranged across the flan, typical of Golden Horde administrative coinage. The legend records the place and year of minting, reading in translation 'Struck at Saray al-Jadid in the year 747.' The script is rendered in a bold Naskh hand consistent with the Saray al-Jadida mint style of the mid-fourteenth century. A single circular border encloses the inscription field. The irregular flan edge and characteristic surface texture reflect the hand-hammered production technique of the period.
