| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Nasta'liq calligraphic inscription recording the regnal date in Hijri notation. The text is arranged horizontally across the flan within a lightly defined border, consistent with Timurid copper coinage convention. The inscription reads 'In history, the year 860' (AH), corresponding to 1455-1456 AD. The flan is irregular in shape with uneven edges characteristic of hand-hammered production, and the surfaces show typical copper patination with areas of red and green oxidation. |
