| Reverse description | Central field enclosed within a rectangular linear cartouche containing multiple lines of Arabic script in bold Naskh style, recording the mint name, date, and kalima or ruler attribution. Above and below the cartouche, additional Arabic legend elements are visible in the field. The coin is surrounded by a continuous dotted border within a plain inner circle, a characteristic feature of Chagatai Khanate silver issues. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, reflecting the hand-hammered production technique. Overall the design adheres to the standard epigraphic style of late 13th-century Mongol coinage in Central Asia. |
