| Obverse description | A bull depicted in profile facing right, rendered in a bold, archaic style characteristic of Safavid-era provincial copper coinage. The animal fills the central field of the irregular rectangular flan, with its body rendered in low relief with visible musculature and a downward-curving tail. The design reflects the local artistic tradition of Tabriz, where bovine imagery served as a civic emblem. No legend or inscription appears on this side. The broad, uneven flan edges are typical of hammered production. |
