| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays a bold multi-line Arabic legend in elaborate Nasta'liq calligraphic script, occupying the entire field and arranged in three registers separated by a horizontal line across the center of the coin. The inscription reads the royal titulature of Fath Ali Shah Qajar, identifying him as 'Sultan son of Sultan.' The lettering is rendered in high relief with vigorous hammer-struck strokes, characteristic of early Qajar hammered coinage. The field surrounding the legend is decorated with scrolling floral and vegetal arabesques. The coin is bordered by a prominent inner ring of raised pellets forming a continuous beaded border. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a multi-line Arabic Nasta'liq legend arranged in sweeping curved registers across the entire field, enclosed within a double beaded border of raised pellets. The inscription records the mint name Borujerd and the Hijri year of striking, reading 'Zarb Borujerd Sanah' followed by the date. The text is set against a field adorned with fine floral scrollwork and small rosette ornaments, typical of provincial Qajar mint production. The overall design is characteristic of the Type D series struck at the Borujerd mint under Fath Ali Shah. |

Fath Ali Shah's reign produced a chaotic proliferation of local mint output across Iran, with provincial mints like Borujerd operating under governors whose loyalty — and accounting — was only loosely supervised from Tehran. The "Type D" classification reflects one of several sequential design revisions imposed centrally but executed with provincial idiosyncrasy, meaning dies cut at Borujerd frequently deviate in subtle ways from the Tehran prototype.
Borujerd, in Lurestan, was a secondary commercial center rather than a major monetary hub, keeping surviving volumes modest.
