Obverse description Central field bearing a multi-line Old Uyghur legend distributed across the flan, reading the royal titulature of Khan Toqta. The inscription, rendered in characteristic Uyghur script with angular strokes, conveys the full regnal title of the sovereign. The field is plain with scattered pellets as decorative or separating elements, and the coin is bordered by a beaded circle near the irregular rim. The strike is typical of hammered Golden Horde silver coinage, with uneven flan preparation resulting in partial legend visibility at the edges.
