| Beschrijving voorzijde | A lion in profile attacking a quadruped, possibly a deer, depicted in a bold, stylized manner characteristic of Safavid-era provincial copper coinage. The predator-prey motif is rendered in high relief against a plain field, with the lion's body occupying the central area of the flan. A decorative foliate or cloud-scroll border runs along the upper periphery of the coin. The irregular flan and crude die work are typical of hammered municipal issues from Qumm. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Bold Arabic legends in Naskh or Nasta'liq script fill the central field, rendered in a loose, provincial hand consistent with anonymous Safavid-era fals coinage. The inscription likely references the mint city of Qumm and possibly a regnal or religious formula, though the crude die work renders precise transcription difficult. A partial border of pellets or dots frames the legend along portions of the rim, visible on the coin's periphery. The overall design is characteristic of anonymous municipal copper issues struck at Qumm during the Safavid period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Qumm (Qom) operated as a significant Safavid administrative center, and anonymous copper fals issues from the city are among the least-documented coinages of the period — mint records are fragmentary, and attribution often rests on die linkage rather than archival evidence. The A#3255 reference places this within Album's broader Safavid anonymous series, though the specific issuing authority behind anonymous urban copper at this date remains unresolved in the literature.
