| Obverse description | Anepigraphic decorative field featuring a central stylized ornamental motif surrounded by a border of raised pellets arranged in a circular pattern. The design consists of an abstract geometric or foliate device rendered in low relief, characteristic of the ornamental dirham series struck at Bulghar. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of hammered coinage of the Golden Horde period. No inscriptions or legends are present on this face. The overall composition reflects the decorative artistic tradition of the Bulghar mint during the late 13th to early 14th century. |
