| Obverse description | Within a plain rectangular cartouche set in the field, a European-style bale mark composed of stylized Latin-like characters arranged in three lines; the design is characteristic of merchant trade stamps adapted for coinage use. The surrounding field is plain, and the overall striking is irregular, consistent with primitive hammered coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a bold Arabic inscription arranged in multiple lines within a plain border, likely conveying the mint name or a formulaic religious phrase typical of Islamic copper coinage of this region and period. The legends are crudely struck and partially flat, reflecting the hand-hammered technique and irregular flan preparation. The surrounding field shows remnants of a dotted or linear border. |
