| Reverse description | Central field displaying a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged within a cruciform quadrant design, mirroring the obverse layout, with the mint name and Hijri regnal year distributed across the quadrants. The legend is enclosed within a scalloped or arched inner border surmounted by a row of pellets or crescents, itself contained within a plain outer rim. The script is bold and angular in the Naskh tradition, typical of mid-19th-century Afghan silver coinage struck at Kabul. |
