| Obverse description | Irregular hammered copper flan bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in the field, executed in a bold, somewhat crude Naskh script characteristic of provincial Madurai Sultanate coinage. The legend, arranged in two or three lines, references the ruler's name and titles within a plain, unbordered field. The striking is uneven, with weak areas toward the irregular periphery typical of hand-struck small denomination coinage of the period. No decorative border or additional ornamental devices are present. |
