Obverse description Central field bears a multi-line Arabic legend in Kufic-influenced script, stating the denominational value of 48 puls to one yarmak. The inscription is boldly struck in relief against a flat, undecorated field, with the legend occupying the majority of the flan. A partial dotted border is visible along the lower rim. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-struck hammered copper coinage of the Golden Horde period.

Reverse description Central field displays a stylised tamgha (dynastic emblem) of the Golden Horde, rendered in relief with a characteristic bifurcated or trident-like form surmounted by a circular element, flanked by subsidiary ornamental strokes. The tamgha is surrounded by a partial Arabic legend naming the mint of issue. A dotted or pellet border encircles the design, though partially off-flan due to the irregular planchet. The overall style is typical of mid-13th-century Golden Horde copper coinage struck at Crimean mints.
