| Obverse description | Central square field densely filled with multiple lines of Maghribi Arabic calligraphy in relief, containing religious formulae and the ruler's name and titles. The square is framed by a single ruled border, beyond which a circular marginal legend in Arabic script runs around the inner periphery. The outermost border is formed by a dotted or beaded circle. The hammered flan exhibits the characteristic irregular surface and slightly uneven strike typical of medieval North African gold coinage. |

| Reverse description | Central square field bearing multiple horizontal lines of Maghribi Arabic calligraphy in bold relief, containing religious invocations, Quranic verses, and dynastic titulature. The square panel is enclosed within a ruled linear border, surrounded by a circular marginal legend in Arabic script. A beaded outer circle defines the coin's perimeter. The reverse shares the same typological layout as the obverse, consistent with the Zayyanid double-square dinar tradition derived from Almohad coinage prototypes. |
