| Reverse description | The reverse presents a multi-line Persian mint and date legend in Nasta'liq script, enclosed within a border of consecutive scalloped arcs or cusped lobes that frame the central field. The inscription records the place and year of striking. Pellet ornaments are visible between the arc segments, a characteristic decorative element of Qajar hammered silver coinage from the Tabriz mint. The flan is irregular in outline, typical of hand-struck production, with the legend reading: 'Struck in the Dar al-Saltanah Tabriz, year 1222.' |
