Reverse description Central field bearing the name and title of the issuing ruler, Qaidu Khan (قايدو خان), inscribed in Arabic script within a lobed cartouche or arched frame, a decorative device commonly employed on Chagatai Khanate silver dirhams of the late 13th century. The field is enclosed by a linear inner border with a partial dotted outer rim. Additional marginal legends, possibly including the mint name Bukhara, are partially visible along the periphery, though weakly struck due to the irregular flan and variable alignment inherent to hammered coinage.
