| Obverse description | Central field bearing a three-line Arabic legend in relief, rendered in a fluid calligraphic hand characteristic of cast Malay tin coinage. The inscription names the issuing ruler, Sultan Zain al-Abadin Muazzam Shah, disposed horizontally across the flan. The overall surface is irregular and slightly concave, consistent with the sand-casting technique employed for this denomination. No decorative border or inner circle is present, leaving the inscription to occupy the full available field. |
