Obverse: Draped bust facing slightly right, wearing headscarf; all within ornate border; Reverse: Rough incuse of obverse, with three lines of Mongolian script. Edge: Plain. Quite deeply toned, with a gunmetal gray nature that yields to a darker gray and areas of amber. Holed at the top for suspension.
