| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features multiple lines of bold Arabic calligraphic legend arranged horizontally within a plain inner circle, with a small recumbent bull or bovine figure rendered in low relief at the lower portion of the field. The legends, struck in raised relief characteristic of medieval Islamic hammered coinage, fill the flan with dense Naskh-style script. An outer marginal legend runs around the periphery within a beaded or rope border. The irregular flan edge is typical of the hand-struck gold dinars of the Hormuz emirate. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hormuz in the late thirteenth century was already emerging as the dominant entrepôt of the Persian Gulf trade network, and Sayf al-Din Nusrat Shah's coinage reflects a ruler asserting fiscal legitimacy at precisely the moment that control of gulf commerce was worth fighting over. The Qalhati emirate — seated at Old Hormuz on the Arabian coast near Qalhat — would eventually be displaced by the island fortress that later gave the strait its enduring name.
The A#1941.2 reference places this within a tightly documented sequence of Hormuzid gold, a series where die links between reigns have occasionally been identified, suggesting deliberate continuity of mint practice across succession.
