| Reverse description | Central field carries a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in three registers reading 'Firuz Shah / Sultani zarbat / ba-hazrat Delhi', identifying the ruler, his royal title, and the mint city of Delhi. The legends are struck in a bold naskh-influenced script filling the flan. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular outline and rough edge of hammered Tughlaq copper coinage. The field shows natural patination consistent with age. |
