Obverse description Central cartouche enclosing the tamga of Möngke Temür (Mangu Timur), distinguished by a crossbar at the right leg of the device. A 'Knot of Happiness' vignette is positioned above the cartouche. An Arabic legend encircles the central device within the field, rendering a pious invocation. The design reflects the characteristic Jochid hammered style, with legends and ornamental elements framing the dynastic tamga.

Reverse description A cartouche contains a two-line Arabic inscription naming the issuing khan, with the mint date inscribed in the third line below; undated variants are known to exist.
