| Obverse description | The obverse is entirely covered in Arabic calligraphic script radiating across the field, with no figurative motif. A prominent upward-pointing crescent occupies the upper central area of the design, enclosing the Hijri accession date 1367. The legend surrounding and filling the field reads the full royal titulature of Imam Ahmad ibn Yahya Hamid al-Din, Commander of the Faithful and Defender of the Faith. The inscription is arranged in multiple registers across the coin's surface, characteristic of Yemeni Imamate coinage of this period. |
