| Reverse description | The reverse field bears a Persian inscription arranged across the coin's surface in a bold, somewhat crude hammered style typical of anonymous local falus issues. The legend is framed by a beaded border along the upper rim, consistent with the obverse treatment. Pellet-cluster ornamental devices appear in the lower field, flanking the central inscription. The overall execution is characteristic of the irregular, locally produced copper coinage of the Rasht mint in the Safavid and post-Safavid period. |
