Reverse description Central field occupied by two lines of Arabic script arranged around a centrally placed Mongol tamgha, mirroring the compositional layout of the obverse. The legend records the mint city of Bulghar, the principal commercial and administrative centre of the western Golden Horde. The die engraving displays the characteristic cursive Jochid style, with bold raised lettering on an unornamented field, and the flan edges show the irregular clipping typical of hammered silver dirhams of this period.
