Obverse description Stylized bull facing left in the central field, its body embellished with multiple pellets (dots) arranged across the torso and haunches in a decorative manner consistent with the Indo-Muslim artistic tradition. The animal is rendered in a schematic, angular style characteristic of hammered billon jitals of the Khwarezmian period. The mint name Kurraman appears as an Arabic-script legend below the bull. A dotted border encircles the entire design.
