| Reverse description | Reverse displays a prominent tughra (royal monogram) of Khan Shahin Giray rendered in the Ottoman calligraphic tradition, centrally placed and occupying the majority of the flan. The tughra's intertwined loops and ascending strokes are characteristic of the Girays' dynastic cipher, with subsidiary script elements visible at the base. The irregular flan edges and flat, worn relief are consistent with hammered billon coinage of the late Crimean Khanate period. |
