Reverse description The reverse bears the AH regnal year '١٢١٩' (1219) inscribed in large, bold Arabic-Indic numerals enclosed within a cartouche or rectangular frame, surmounted by an arched border. Below the numerals appears the word 'سنه' (year), following standard Islamic dating convention. The overall design is simple and functional, consistent with the utilitarian hammered copper coinage of the Sharifate of Mecca under Sharif Ghalib.
