| Beschrijving voorzijde | Irregularly shaped hammered gold flan bearing a multi-line Arabic legend disposed across the central field. The inscription, executed in an early Naskhi or Kufic-influenced script typical of 12th-century Iranian dynastic coinage, carries the Shahada in three lines: the first proclaiming the unity of God, the second His uniqueness, and the third the prophethood of Muhammad. The flan shows characteristic surface undulation, edge cracking, and flan stress marks consistent with hand-hammered medieval Islamic gold coinage. The field is otherwise unadorned, the legend occupying virtually the entire face. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Irregularly struck hammered gold flan bearing a four-line Arabic legend in the central field, consistent with the regal and religious titulature conventions of Atabeg dynastic coinage of Fars. The uppermost line names the Abbasid caliph al-Nasir li-Din Allah as spiritual suzerain, followed by the title Amir al-Muminin (Commander of the Faithful), then the honorific al-Malik al-Mu'azzam (the Exalted King), and finally the name and patronymic of the issuing ruler, Tughril ibn Sunqur. The script, rendered in a provincial Naskhi hand, is partially blundered due to the worn state of the die and uneven flan preparation. Surface flow lines, fissures, and patchy oxidation are visible across the field, characteristic of this series. |
