| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a large, bold tamgha (dynastic emblem) rendered in a geometric, architectural style, consisting of a rectangular frame with an upward-projecting prong, characteristic of the Golden Horde ornamental type. A crescent motif appears above the tamgha in the upper field. The coin is anepigraphic, bearing no inscriptions or legends. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hammered fractional coinage of the period. The design is executed in low relief with a somewhat crude but intentional decorative style. |
