| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic kufic inscription arranged within a double or beaded inner circle, itself enclosed by a beaded outer border running along the coin's irregular periphery. The inscription, characteristic of Saltukid fals coinage of Diya' al-Din Ghazi, likely contains the ruler's name and titles in angular kufic script. The overall design is executed in the hammered tradition with bold, deeply struck lettering set against a flat field. The coin exhibits significant encrustation but the epigraphic layout remains broadly legible. |
