Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse field is entirely occupied by a bold, flowing Arabic calligraphic legend executed in the nasta'liq script style, characteristic of early nineteenth-century Afghan coinage. The inscription, arranged in two principal lines across the flan, reads 'Daulat Dost Muhammad / Amir al-Mu'minin' (the State of Dost Muhammad, Commander of the Faithful), asserting the ruler's sovereign and religious authority. Decorative foliate or pellet ornaments punctuate the legend, filling the remaining field in the traditional manner of Kabul mint issues. The coin is struck on an irregular, slightly clipped flan, consistent with the hammered technique of the period. The overall design displays the vigorous, uneven relief typical of hand-struck Central Asian rupees.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a densely composed Arabic calligraphic field in nasta'liq script, with the mint name and regnal year occupying the central area of the irregular flan. The legend 'Zarb Kabul' (struck at Kabul) appears prominently, identifying the Kabul mint as the place of issue, while the AH dates 1239, 1240, and 1241 are recorded across the series. A geometric or star-pattern framework formed by interlacing calligraphic strokes is visible in the upper field, a decorative convention found on contemporaneous Kabul rupees. Pellet and foliate ornaments are interspersed throughout the field, filling the space between the principal legend elements. The flan exhibits the characteristic irregularity and pronounced relief of hammered coinage produced at the Kabul mint during the first reign of Dost Muhammad Khan.
