| Reverse description | Square klippe flan struck in lead, with a circular design centered on the broad square planchet. The central circle is divided horizontally by a line, with Arabic inscriptions disposed in the upper and lower registers referencing the denomination and royal titles of Imam Ahmad. An outer wreath or foliate border surrounds the inner circle, partially extending toward the edges of the square flan. The overall relief is shallow and the surfaces carry the coarse texture typical of a lead trial piece, with visible die polish and flow lines across the field. |
