Reverse description The reverse presents a single-word Arabic inscription reading 'Bahmani' rendered in an informal Naskh script, centrally positioned within the irregular field of the hammered flan. The legend is surrounded by an open field with no border or additional ornamental devices. Strike is characteristic of Deccan sultanate copper coinage of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, with uneven metal flow and flan irregularities typical of hand-hammered production. Significant wear and surface granularity are present across the reverse field.
