Reverse description Central field bearing a concise Arabic mint legend arranged in horizontal registers, identifying the place of issue as Ordu, the principal administrative and commercial center of the Golden Horde. The bold, raised script is rendered in the characteristic angular style of late Jochid hammered coinage. A dotted or pellet border partially encircles the flan perimeter, though the irregular planchet causes the border to be incomplete in places. The field is otherwise plain and devoid of ornamental devices, adhering to the aniconic standards of Islamic numismatic tradition. Overall die alignment and strike quality are consistent with mass-produced utilitarian silver coinage of the early fifteenth century.
