Obverse description Anepigraphic ornamental design featuring a central annulet or ring motif surrounded by radiating pointed star or arrow-like elements extending toward the coin's periphery. Small pellets or globules are positioned within and around the central device, imparting a decorative, non-figural character. The overall composition is executed in low relief on an irregularly shaped flan, consistent with hammered coinage of the Bulghar mint. No legends or inscriptions appear on this face.
