| Reverse description | Hammered reverse bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in Naskh script filling the field, recording the name and patronymic of the sultan Muhammad Shah ibn Humayun Shah together with his royal titles. A horizontal line separates the main legend from an additional inscription in the lower segment of the flan. The strike is irregular, as is characteristic of Bahmani hammered copper issues, with some letters crowded toward the periphery. No mint name or date appears in the field on this type. |
