| Obverse description | Annular field bearing a cursive inscription in Jawi or related Arabic-derived script distributed around the central round perforation, occupying the full width of the annular flan. The characters are rendered in low relief in the primitive cast style typical of Malay peninsula tin pitis coinage, with the legend arranged in a continuous band encircling the void. The surfaces show the characteristic rough texture and flow lines associated with cast tin production. |
