Beschrijving voorzijde Central field features a tamga (dynastic emblem) depicted within a beaded inner circle, itself surrounded by an outer ring of pellets arranged around the circumference. The tamga symbol appears as a stylized trident-like device. The coin is anepigraphic, with no legends present on either side. The flan is irregular and the strike is typical of hammered Golden Horde coinage of the late 13th to early 14th century.

Beschrijving keerzijde A prominent hexagram (Seal of Solomon) formed by two interlocking equilateral triangles occupies the entire central field, with a six-petalled rosette at the center where the triangles intersect. Small pellets or globules are placed at the six outer points of the star and at intervals around the coin's edge, serving as decorative border elements. The design is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of Bulghar mint anepigraphic issues of the Golden Horde. The flan is irregular with a slight chip, and no inscriptions appear anywhere on the reverse.

Aanvullende informatie

The anepigraphic dirhams of the Golden Horde present a persistent attribution problem — no mint name, no ruler's name, no date. The Bulghar attribution rests largely on typological grouping and find-spot concentration along the Volga. These pieces circulated in a commercial zone where the Horde's economy was expanding rapidly, and the absence of inscriptions may reflect local workshop practice rather than any administrative intent.

The thirty-year window assigned to this type spans the reigns of Töde Möngke through Toqta — a period of internal dynastic instability that saw at least four khans in succession.
