| Reverse description | Bold Arabic mint formula in stylized script occupying the central field, reading 'darb Bulghar' (struck at Bulghar), identifying the mint city on the Volga. Above the main inscription, a curvilinear floral or vegetal arabesque pattern serves as a decorative element. The lettering is executed in a robust, somewhat angular hand characteristic of early Golden Horde coinage, with the individual letter forms heavily stylized and intertwined. The field is otherwise plain, with no border legend or additional ornamental devices visible. |
