| Obverse description | Central field occupied by two lines of Arabic script flanking a Mongol tamgha device in the centre, the whole composition arranged within an irregular flan typical of hammered coinage. The legend reads 'Möngke Khan the highest,' acknowledging the supreme Great Khan. The die-work is bold and angular, characteristic of mid-13th century Golden Horde provincial coinage, with the tamgha serving as the dynastic emblem of the Jochid ruling house. |
