| Reverse description | Central device consisting of five pellets or dots arranged in a quincunx pattern within the field, surrounded by a circular Choresmian-script legend naming the ruler. The inscription encircles the central device and is rendered in the cursive Choresmian script characteristic of this dynastic series. The flan is irregular with uneven strike, and the reverse surface shows characteristic bronze patination and surface corrosion consistent with burial. |
