| Reverse description | Irregular square hammered copper flan bearing a two-line Arabic legend in raised relief, similarly divided by a horizontal raised linear border. The field carries the patronymic inscription reading 'Ibn al-Sultan / Mahmud Shah' in bold naskh-style script, affirming the ruler's dynastic lineage. The lettering occupies two distinct registers separated by a double ruled line, with the script showing the characteristic broad, compact strokes typical of Malwa Sultanate copper coinage. The flan surface exhibits natural surface porosity and patination consistent with prolonged circulation. |
