| Reverse description | Hammered reverse displaying a multi-line Persian legend in Nasta'liq script arranged in three horizontal registers, separated by ruled cartouche lines. The legend commemorates the auspicious date of accession (Jalus) of Nader Shah, with the AH date 1149 (1737 AD) prominently inscribed in the lower field in Eastern Arabic numerals. The calligraphy is bold and characteristic of Afsharid mint practice, with slight weakness at the irregular planchet edge consistent with hand-struck production. |
