| Obverse description | Floral and vegetal decorative design occupying the entire field of this irregularly shaped hammered copper fals. The central motif appears to depict a stylized bird or zoomorphic figure flanked by large palmette or tulip-like floral sprays rendered in bold relief. The composition is characteristic of anonymous local Persian municipal coinage, executed in a naive but expressive die-cutting style with no inscriptions present on this face. |
