| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a large, bold tughra of Shahin Giray Khan rendered in elaborate Ottoman calligraphic style, with characteristic sweeping loops and ascending strokes. Floral or foliate ornamental devices appear to either side of the tughra in the upper field. The design is set within a plain, undecorated circular flan with a heavily textured field surface characteristic of a pattern strike. |

| Reverse description | Central field bears a bold Arabic mint legend reading 'Zarb' (struck) followed by the mint name, rendered in large Thuluth-style calligraphy occupying the majority of the flan. Below the legend, a row of four vertical strokes likely indicating the regnal year or denomination notation. A small device appears above the main legend in the upper field. The plain, wide flan and heavy strike are consistent with a pattern or proof-type production. |
