| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays multiple horizontal lines of Arabic Kufic script containing the name and titles of Sultan Mahmud I alongside those of the Abbasid caliph, affirming both religious and temporal authority. A circular marginal legend borders the field, recording the mint of Isfahan and the Hijri date. The script is executed in the characteristic Seljuq epigraphic style with geometric letter forms. Minor flat strikes are visible on portions of the flan, consistent with the hammered production technique. The reverse layout closely mirrors the obverse in its emphasis on textual content over figural imagery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mahmud I's reign lasted less than two years. He was installed as sultan in 1092 following the death of Malik-Shah I, but his claim was immediately contested by his brother Barkiyaruq, triggering a succession war that would fragment Seljuq authority for decades. Isfahan, the imperial capital under Malik-Shah, remained a prize in that conflict. A gold dinar struck there in 1093 dates to the heart of that instability — the mint still functioning, still asserting legitimacy, even as the dynasty's unity was dissolving around it.
