| Obverse description | The entire field is occupied by the royal titulature of Fath Ali Shah Qajar, rendered in bold nastaliq calligraphy filling the flan in multiple sweeping lines. The legend reads the ruler's name and titles, proclaiming divine authority and dynastic lineage. The script is arranged in an overlapping, diagonal composition characteristic of early Qajar hammered coinage, with no border or decorative frame. The die-struck lettering exhibits vigorous relief against a smooth silver field, typical of the Type A series. |
