| Obverse description | Applied countermark of the Columns of Gediminas (Vytautas dynastic device), punched into the host coin's field. The countermark depicts the characteristic triple-towered gate or pillar emblem without dots within the sign, rendered in intaglio relief against the irregular flan surface. The device is clearly defined, showing the stepped columnar form associated with the Grand Duchy of Lithuania's heraldic symbol. The host coin's original design remains partially visible in the surrounding field. |

| Reverse description | Reverse of the host Tatar denga, displaying Arabic script legend arranged across the field in multiple lines, characteristic of Golden Horde or post-Horde Tatar coinage. The inscription, struck on a roughly oval irregular flan, shows typical cursive Arabic epigraphic style denoting the issuing khan's name and titles. The surface is worn and uneven, consistent with the hammered technique and secondary countermarking. A partial decorative border element is visible at the upper margin of the flan. |
