Reverse description Central field bearing a stylized six-petalled rosette or wheel-like floral ornament, with each petal rendered as a curvilinear, bifurcating branch terminating in scroll-like volutes. The petals radiate symmetrically from a small central boss, creating a bold, decorative wheel pattern that fills the flan. The design is fully anepigraphic, with no surrounding legend or mint inscription. The raised relief of the floral motif contrasts with the irregular, roughly finished flan surface. The overall composition reflects the ornamental artistic conventions of Golden Horde coinage from the Bulgharian mint.
