Obverse description Centrally placed Arabic legend in three lines arranged within a dotted border, reading 'adl sultan al-mu'azzam' (Justice of the Exalted Sultan). The script is executed in a bold, angular Naskh style typical of early Delhi Sultanate coinage. The field shows the characteristic irregular flan surface of hammered copper issues, with the legend slightly off-center. No figural elements are present, consistent with the aniconic tradition of Islamic numismatics.
