| Obverse description | Central field displays the dynastic tamgha of Khan Mangu Timur rendered in relief within a prominent equilateral triangle. The tamgha, a Mongol heraldic ownership symbol, is composed of a stylized trident-like device with characteristic forked upper element and a rectangular lower base, boldly struck against the flat triangular ground. Marginal elements are partially visible at the flan edges, consistent with a broader die design extending beyond the irregular flan. The die work is bold and schematic, reflecting the utilitarian character of Golden Horde fiduciary copper coinage. |

| Reverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic legend disposed within an equilateral triangle, the sides of which are clearly delineated by raised linear borders. The inscription, partially legible due to flan irregularity and die wear, is arranged in horizontal registers filling the triangular cartouche, a format characteristic of Golden Horde Pul coinage of the Mangu Timur period. The field outside the triangle is plain and unadorned. The overall strike is bold but uneven, consistent with hand-hammered production at a provincial mint. |
