| Obverse description | Hammered billon flan of irregular round shape bearing a three-line Arabic inscription in the field. The legends are arranged horizontally across the coin surface, reading 'Sultan Muhammad Year 1129' in the Hijri calendar. The script is rendered in a bold, cursive hand typical of early 18th-century Maldivian coinage. A dotted border encircles the inscription, framing the field. The overall style reflects the rudimentary engraving tradition of the Malé Mint under Sultan Muhammad Imaduddin II. |
