| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic mint and date inscription in bold calligraphic script, reading 'Zarb Dar al-Saltana Isfahan' (Struck in the Seat of the Sultanate, Isfahan), with the AH regnal year '١٢۵۵' (1255) placed below. The flowing nasta'liq script fills the flan in a characteristic Qajar hammered style, with individual letter strokes overlapping decoratively. The field is plain with no additional ornamental devices. A beaded border encircles the design along the rim. The inscription identifies both the mint city of Isfahan and the date of issue in accordance with standard Qajar monetary practice. |
