| Obverse description | Central field features a Persian legend in Arabic script enclosed within an oval or pointed arch border composed of a continuous row of pellets. The arch motif, typical of Baloch hammered coinage, frames the inscription in the field. The overall flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck production, and the surfaces exhibit characteristic flatness and weakness at the margins due to the hammering technique. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a Persian inscription in Arabic script arranged within a central circular cartouche, itself enclosed by a beaded border running around the full circumference of the coin. Decorative floral or leaf-like ornamental elements occupy the field surrounding the central cartouche, a stylistic feature characteristic of Khanate of Kalat copper coinage. The strike is typical of hammered production, resulting in an uneven flan with areas of weakness, and the field shows the natural texture and patina of circulated copper. |
