Reverse description Central field occupied by a decorative interlaced or knotted arabesque motif enclosed within a circular cartouche, surrounded by a broad marginal band of flowing Arabic inscription in cursive script. The overall design is strongly geometric, with the central device appearing as a stylized knot or floral whorl typical of Timurid decorative conventions. The legend in the outer band likely records the date, denomination, or mint attribution. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, with areas of weakness at the periphery. Surface retains areas of green copper oxide patina interspersed with exposed copper.
