| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a diamond-shaped interlaced knot motif enclosing a cross, a decorative device characteristic of Kashmir Sultanate copper coinage. The knotwork design is rendered in low relief across the irregular flan, with the surrounding field occupied by the Arabic legend of the ruler's titulature disposed in multiple lines. The overall execution is characteristic of hammered provincial coinage, with design elements showing bold but somewhat crude striking consistent with the period. |

| Reverse description | The reverse field carries the mint name and Hijri regnal date inscribed in multiple lines of Arabic script, disposed across the flan without a defined border. The legend is struck in low relief on the irregular copper flan, with the numerals of the date rendered prominently in the upper portion of the field. The execution is typical of hammered Kashmir Sultanate copper issues, with the inscription filling the available field in an informal arrangement. |
