| Obverse description | Central field bears a bold Arabic inscription arranged in multiple lines within a plain inner circle, surrounded by a dotted border and an outer legend running along the circumference. The central text reads the Shahada in two parts: the declaration of the oneness of God and the name of the Qarakhanid ruler Mu'izz al-Din Musa. The flan is irregular and shows typical characteristics of hammered copper coinage, with surface porosity and patination consistent with medieval Central Asian production. The die work is boldly struck, though slightly off-center, with the inner circle and dotted border clearly visible despite wear. |
