| Reverse description | Reverse displaying multiple lines of Arabic inscription set within a rectangular cartouche or linear border, a design feature characteristic of Kart dynasty gold coinage struck at Herat. The legends, rendered in a bold angular hand, likely contain the mint name, date, and Quranic formulae. The field outside the cartouche shows traces of marginal legend on the irregular flan. The die work is firm and deeply struck, consistent with high-value mithqal denominations of the period. |
