| Reverse description | Central field displaying a vertically oriented Old Uyghur legend in bold, flowing strokes characteristic of the Chagatai chancellery script, reading 'Duwa Khan' in reference to the Chagatai Khan Duwa under whose suzerainty this issue was struck. The inscription is arranged in vertical columns occupying the full field, with the script's distinctive cursive ligatures clearly rendered despite the irregular flan and somewhat rough hammered surface. No border ornament is present. |
