| Obverse description | Central field bears a four-line Kufic religious inscription, with a prominent inner circle and two small rosettes positioned beneath the central text. The marginal legend, rendered in Arabic script, records the mint name and date of issue. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, consistent with Buyid silver dirham coinage of the early 11th century. |
