| Obverse description | Central field bearing a three-line religious inscription in elegant Nastaliq script, comprising the Shia Kalima — the Islamic declaration of faith expanded with the names of the Twelve Imams. The central panel is enclosed within a cartouche-style frame, surrounded by a circular marginal legend continuing the invocation of the Imams' names. The overall design is characteristic of Safavid epigraphic coinage, with the field entirely occupied by calligraphic text and no figural imagery. A beaded or pellet border runs along the outer rim. |
