| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in Naskh script disposed across the field. The legend reads the royal epithet and titles of the sultan, arranged in two or three lines filling the coin's face. The script is boldly struck but shows characteristic irregularity of the hammered technique, with portions of the legend occasionally running to the rim. The field is flat and undecorated, with no border ornament, typical of Bahmani copper coinage of the later fifteenth century. |
