Reverse description Central field bearing a hammered Arabic inscription arranged across the coin's surface in multiple lines. The legend reads 'فلوس ضرب تفليس ١١١٢', indicating the denomination (fulus), the mint (Tiflis), and the AH date 1112 (AD 1701). The script is in a cursive Arabic hand consistent with Georgian-Persian administrative usage of the period. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, as is typical of hammered copper issues from the Tiflis Mint.
