| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in flowing calligraphic script, reading the royal titulature of Imam Yahya: 'Al-Mutawakkil 'ala Allah / Yahya / Muhammad / Hamid al-Din'. The legends fill the flan in characteristic hammered style, with no border ornament, typical of early Mutawakkilite coinage. The irregular flan and hand-struck technique impart a slightly uneven relief to the lettering. |
