| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line nastaliq inscription in raised relief, arranged within a characteristic Qajar cartouche framework with intersecting linear borders dividing the field into registers. The legend includes the pious phrase 'Al-Izza Lillah' (Glory belongs to God) alongside the mint formula 'Zarb Dar al-Ilm Shiraz,' identifying the city of Shiraz as the place of striking. The calligraphy is bold and deeply engraved, filling the flan in the typical style of early Qajar provincial hammered silver coinage. |
