| Obverse description | Irregular hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in the field, arranged in horizontal registers. The legends, struck in a bold but somewhat crude Naskh-style script, contain the name and titles of the ruler Qaidu bin Kashin. The flat, unbordered field shows typical characteristics of Chagatai Khanate coinage, with weak areas and die shifts consistent with hand-struck production. No decorative border or geometric framing is visible. |
