Reverse description Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in flowing Naskh calligraphy identifying the mint city of Mashhad, rendered as 'Arz-e Aqdas-e Imam 'alayhi's-salam' (the Most Holy Land of the Imam, peace be upon him), a traditional epithet for Mashhad as the shrine city of Imam Reza. The legend is arranged across the field in two or three lines, enclosed within a beaded border running along the coin's periphery. The overall composition is consistent with standard Qajar provincial mint practice.
