| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays a multi-line Kufic Arabic inscription arranged in horizontal registers, naming the Abbasid caliph al-Qa'im bi-Amr Allah and the Seljuq local ruler Toghanshah, with the opening word 'lillah' (to God) at the apex. A five-pointed star ornament is visible at the top of the central field. The marginal legend contains the Quranic verse 9:33 ('He it is Who sent His Messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He may cause it to prevail over all religions, however much the polytheists may be averse') running around the inner border, enclosed within a raised linear frame typical of Seljuq gold dinars. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Toghanshah ruled Herat as a Seljuq prince during the reign of his father Alp Arslan, who had defeated the Byzantine emperor Romanos IV at Manzikert just two years before this coin was struck — the battle that effectively opened Anatolia to Turkic settlement. Provincial Seljuq gold from Herat is considerably scarcer than the central mint output of Nishapur or Isfahan, reflecting both Herat's secondary administrative status and the relatively short tenures of its governors.
