| Obverse description | Within the pentagonal field, a crescent occupies the upper portion of the design, its horns pointing upward, enclosing Arabic inscriptions identifying the ruler Ahmad bin Yahya and his titles. The accession date appears within or immediately below the crescent in Arabic numerals. Additional Arabic legends fill the lower field, rendered in the characteristic bold script of Yemeni Zaydi coinage. The entire design is contained within the flat pentagonal flan with no border decoration. |
