| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field dominated by a prominent multi-petalled rosette or pinwheel motif with radiating leaf-like segments issuing from a central boss, a decorative device commonly employed on medieval Islamic copper coinage. Arabic inscriptions in bold cursive script flank the central ornament on the left and lower portions of the field. The design is enclosed within a circle of raised pellets forming an inner border, with a plain raised rim beyond. The strike is typical of hand-hammered provincial Iranian fals production, showing characteristic die misalignment and flan irregularity. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Anonymous copper fals of this type circulated widely in early Islamic Iran during a period when the Umayyad and early Abbasid administrations permitted local civic authorities to strike low-denomination copper independently of the central silver dirham coinage. The absence of a caliph's name was not an oversight — it reflects deliberate municipal issuing practice, with the city itself functioning as the nominal authority.
Album 3269 covers a broad grouping; precise attribution within it often hinges on mint city identification from the Arabic text, which on heavily circulated examples is frequently the first detail to become illegible.
