| Reverse description | The reverse presents Arabic inscriptions disposed in multiple registers across the flan. A central circular medallion bordered by a beaded or dotted inner ring contains a portion of the legend, surrounded by radiating linear elements extending toward the coin's periphery, a decorative device characteristic of Musha'sha' issues. The field carries the date 906 AH in the upper area, the Shi'a formula acknowledging Ali as the friend of God in the central zone, and the mint name al-Hadhra in the lower register. The overall composition reflects the Shi'a Ismaili theological identity of the dynasty. |
