| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic religious legend arranged in horizontal registers, characteristic of early Abbasid-era provincial copper coinage. The Kufic script is boldly struck, with individual letter strokes remaining partially legible despite considerable surface patination and wear. The inscription is contained within the flat, unadorned field of this irregularly-shaped hammered flan. No figurative devices or borders are present, in keeping with the aniconic tradition of Islamic numismatics. The overall style reflects the transitional Arab-Sindhi coinage of the mid-eighth century. |
