| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a bold nasta'liq calligraphic inscription in Arabic script, reading the royal titulature of Fath Ali Shah Qajar. The legend is arranged in sweeping, interlocking lines characteristic of Qajar coinage, framed by a decorative border of raised pellets encircling the entire field. The artistic style reflects the ornate calligraphic tradition of early nineteenth-century Iranian minting. |
