| Obverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in angular naskh script, citing the name and title of the Great Khan Möngke. The inscription is arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, with decorative pellet ornaments flanking the text on the left margin. The coin is crudely struck on an irregular flan, typical of Mongol hammered silver coinage, with flat areas and minor flan cracks visible at the edge. |
