| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a rectangular cartouche containing the Arabic legend of the Khan's name and title in two lines, rendered in a bold, somewhat rustic Naskh script characteristic of Golden Horde hammered coinage. The cartouche is surrounded by a ring of pellets arranged at intervals within a plain linear border. A partial date inscription in Arabic numerals appears in the lower exergual area outside the cartouche. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-cut hammered production at the Bulghar mint. |
