| Obverse description | Hammered bronze flan bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in the field, reading the sultan's name and title. The legend is arranged in three horizontal registers across the coin's surface, rendered in a cursive Arabic script typical of Maldivian coinage of the period. The coin exhibits an irregular, slightly octagonal shape characteristic of hand-struck Larin coinage. The inscription reads 'Al-Sultan Al-Ghazi Mohammad Iskandar' in raised relief against a flat field. |
