| Reverse description | The reverse displays a multi-line Arabic inscription filling the field, rendered in angular Kufic or early Naskh script typical of 13th-century Iranian provincial coinage. The legend likely contains the ruler's name and titles, including the laqab 'Ala al-Dawla, along with a religious formula. The flan is irregular and the strike is uneven, resulting in partial weakness at the edges. No border or decorative framing is visible, with the inscription occupying the full available field. The surface shows characteristic patination and encrustations consistent with age and burial. |
