| Obverse description | Hammered silver field bearing the Persian couplet 'Auj mahi ta bamah' arranged in multiple curved lines of Arabic script across the coin's face. The inscription, praising Ahmad Shah Durrani, is rendered in a bold nastaliq style typical of Durrani-era coinage. The legend fills the entire field in characteristic concentric arc formation, with no border or decorative motif beyond the calligraphic text. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, consistent with hand-struck production of the period. |
