| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic-script legend arranged in two horizontal registers separated by a ruled line, proclaiming the name and titles of Khan Toqtamish. The inscription reads 'Sultan Toqtamish Khan the Highest' in bold, deeply struck Naskh-style lettering. Small pellet ornaments are visible between words as decorative separators. The flan is irregular in outline, characteristic of hammered steppe coinage, with the legend frequently running to the edge. The field shows a warm brown patina on a silver substrate. |

| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in horizontal registers, stating the mint name Saray al-Jadida and the hijri date of issue. The lettering is struck in bold raised relief in Naskh style, with pellet ornaments serving as word dividers within the field. A decorative border of small stars or dashes runs along the inner periphery, a common feature of late Golden Horde coinage. The irregular flan edge reflects the hand-hammered production technique typical of the Jochid monetary tradition. |
