| Reverse description | The enthroned ruler depicted as an equestrian figure galloping to the right, raising a whip in his hand in a pose emblematic of royal authority and martial prowess. A dynastic tamgha symbol is prominently placed to the left of the horse in the field. The central device is encircled by a Chorasmian script marginal legend running around the coin's periphery, executed in the highly stylized cursive script typical of late Afrighid silver coinage. |
