| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in Naskh script identifying the mint and the Hijri date. The inscription is arranged in horizontal lines across the flan, translating as 'Mint Saray al-Jadida' with the date recorded as 788 A.H. — a twice-inverted rendering of the intended date 778 A.H. (778→887→788). The field is enclosed by a partial dotted border consistent with the obverse treatment, and the relief lettering shows the characteristic irregularity of hand-struck Golden Horde dirhams. |

| Additional information |
Tochtamysh briefly united the eastern and western wings of the Golden Horde in the early 1380s — a consolidation that hadn't been achieved in decades — before his catastrophic defeat by Timur at the Terek River in 1395 effectively ended Horde dominance over the steppe. The Saray al-Jadida mint was among his most productive, and dirhams struck there during his reign document the short window of reunified Horde authority.
The Sagdeeva range 423–429 reflects meaningful die variation within this type, not a single uniform issue.
