| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic kufic legend arranged within a plain inner circle, bearing the religious and titular inscriptions of the issuing authority. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script runs along the outer border, separated from the central device by a beaded or plain inner ring. The die-work is characteristic of Qarakhanid hammered copper coinage, with irregular flan edges and somewhat off-center strike. The overall style reflects the epigraphic tradition of Central Asian Islamic coinage of the early eleventh century. |
