Reverse description The reverse presents Arabic calligraphic inscriptions in Naskh script arranged across the field, denoting the denomination 'نصف قرش' (half qirsh) and additional royal titulature. At the lower portion of the field, the Hijri date ١٣٥٦ (1356 AH) is rendered in large, bold Eastern Arabic numerals. A small decorative device appears in the center of the field above the date. The plain, unadorned field around the legends gives the design a restrained, purely epigraphic character.
