Reverse description The reverse field is entirely covered by a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold hammered relief, arranged in horizontal registers filling the round flan. The legend includes the sultan's name and regnal titles together with the AH date 1173, presented in the lower register. The calligraphic style is consistent with the obverse, displaying the characteristic informal, archaic hand of Maldivian 18th-century struck coinage. The flan edges are irregular, reflecting the hand-hammered production technique.
