| Reverse description | The reverse bears the AH date 1223 repeated twice in bold Arabic numerals, separated by a stylized fish motif positioned horizontally between the two date inscriptions. The legends are arranged in two registers divided by the fish symbol, with the date appearing above and below it. The lettering is deeply struck in a robust, angular style typical of Sharifate copper coinage, set within an irregular, uneven border. |
