| Reverse description | The reverse presents a central field occupied by a multi-line Kufic Arabic religious inscription arranged in four or five horizontal lines within a plain inner circle, consistent with the standard Islamic dirham formula. A continuous marginal legend in angular Kufic script encircles the design between two concentric linear borders. Small annulets punctuate the outer border at intervals. The inscription and layout adhere strictly to the aniconic Abbasid epigraphic tradition, with no figural or decorative motifs beyond the calligraphic text. |
