| Obverse description | Central device depicting a balance scale with two pendant pans suspended from a horizontal beam, the fulcrum terminating in a downward-pointing pointer, and a decorative four-petalled rosette ornament at the center of the field. The Arabic word عادل (meaning 'Just') appears as a legend in the lower portion of the field, referencing the sultan's attribute of justice. The design is rendered in a simple, bold linear style characteristic of early nineteenth-century Southeast Asian sultanate coinage. |
