Reverse description Reverse field bears an elaborate ornamental composition of interlocking circular and curvilinear motifs, including pellets, rosettes, and scroll-like elements, arranged in a dense decorative pattern without any legible inscription or text. The design is entirely anepigraphic, reflecting the distinctive non-Islamic ornamental style attributed to the Bulghar mint during this period. A beaded border encircles the design field along the coin's periphery. The flan displays characteristic irregularities in shape and surface typical of hammered coinage, with minor die-shift visible.
