| Obverse description | Central field occupied by multiple horizontal lines of Kufic Arabic inscription arranged in four registers, typical of Abbasid dirham typology. A prominent bismillah formula or shahada occupies the uppermost line of the central legend. The inner field is enclosed by a single linear border, surrounded by a circular marginal legend in Kufic script running along the outer ring. A further rope or pellet border frames the entire design at the rim, the whole struck on an irregular flan characteristic of hammered Islamic silver coinage of the 3rd century AH. |
