| Reverse description | Central field displaying multiple horizontal lines of Arabic Kufic inscription arranged in registers within a plain inner circle, conveying the ruler's name and titles along with mint and date formulae. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script frames the central inscription panel, running along the entire circumference of the coin. The lettering is characteristic of late 11th-century Seljuq epigraphic style, bold and angular. The coin's irregular flan and hammered fabric are evident, with slight weakness at the margins typical of the type. |
