| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic legend in bold naskh script proclaiming the royal titulature of the khan. A decorative rectangular cartouche or tamgha device appears in the upper portion of the field, flanked by ornamental elements characteristic of Golden Horde coinage. The inscription fills the flan in the typical horizontal-line format of mid-14th century Jochid dirhams, with the legend reading 'Sultan Mahmud Jani Beg Khan'. The strike is somewhat off-center on the irregular flan, as is common for hammered issues of this series. |

| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic legend in naskh script arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, recording the mint name and date of issue. A decorative geometric or foliate motif, possibly a crosshatch-filled cartouche, is visible in the right portion of the field, serving as an ornamental device typical of Saray al-Jadida mint issues. The overall design follows the standard Jochid reverse format, with the mint and regnal year formula occupying the primary legend area. The flan is irregular and the strike shows characteristic unevenness of hammered production. |
