| Obverse description | Central field bearing a two-line Persian poetic legend in elegant Nasta'liq script, reading in full: 'sekke-ye sahebqerani zad be toufiq-e elah / hamcho khorshid-e jahan-afruz ebrahim shah' (A coin of sovereign authority struck by divine grace / Like the world-illuminating sun, Ibrahim Shah). The inscription is enclosed within a circular dotted border, typical of Afsharid hammered coinage. The irregular flan and bold calligraphic style are characteristic of mid-18th-century Iranian mint production. |
