| Obverse description | Close imitation of a coin of Muzaffar Shah III of Gujarat, featuring a debased and stylized Arabic legend occupying the central field and surrounding area. A dagger device appears at the bottom right of the field. The legend, rendered in debased Naskh script, reads in part: 'Ar-reman betaid al-muwid shams ad-duniya waud-din abu-Al-nasir', translating as 'Son of the world and defender of the Religion by the help and strength of the Merciful'. The overall execution reflects the local Kutchi hammered tradition, with the inscriptions degraded from their Sultanate prototype. |
