| Obverse description | Central field bearing a two-line Arabic inscription in bold Naskh script reading 'al-Sultan al-Adil / Mahmud Jani Bek Khan', identifying the ruler by his honorific title 'the Just Sultan' and his full regnal name. The legend is arranged horizontally across the flan in two registers, with the script executed in high relief characteristic of hammered Golden Horde coinage. The flan is irregularly shaped, a typical feature of struck Jochid dirhams, with the inscription occasionally running to the edges. No figural imagery is present, consistent with the aniconic tradition of Islamic monetary production. |
