| Reverse description | Central field displays a multi-line Arabic inscription in Kufic script arranged in horizontal registers, surrounded by a single circular line border. A marginal legend in Arabic script runs around the periphery of the coin, partially visible along the upper arc of the flan. The striking is characteristic of provincial hammered copper coinage, with the flan exhibiting irregular edges and uneven surfaces typical of the period. The inscription likely references the governor's name or a religious formula, consistent with Arab-Sindhi fals coinage of the Umayyad-Abbasid transitional period. Surface shows dark olive-brown patination with areas of red copper exposed. |
