| Obverse description | Central field bearing the royal title and mint formula in bold, deeply struck Arabic calligraphy arranged in three horizontal lines, with the AH date (1131, 1132, or 1133) inscribed in the lower segment of the field. The legends are rendered in a flowing nastaliq script characteristic of late Safavid coinage. A decorative dotted border encircles the entire design, framing the inscriptions within the rounded flan. Floral or foliate ornamental devices appear in the margins between the script registers. The overall style is consistent with the hammered silver coinage of Shah Sultan Husayn struck at the Rasht mint. |
