| Reverse description | Square flan, hammered, bearing Arabic inscriptions in Naskh script arranged within a compartmented field typical of Malwa Sultanate copper coinage. The legend is distributed across registers separated by a horizontal rule, with text referencing the ruler's titles and/or religious formulae. The surfaces show the characteristic irregular strike and slightly convex profile common to hand-struck base-metal issues of the period. |
