| Reverse description | The reverse presents a central calligraphic composition in Nasta'liq script arranged in an interlaced medallion format, occupying the full field of the coin. The inscription, rendered in bold high-relief strokes, is surrounded by an elaborately engraved background of scrolling foliate arabesques and pellet clusters. A partial border of pellets runs along the coin's periphery. The hammered flan exhibits the characteristic irregular shape and uneven edge associated with hand-struck Afghan rupees of the early Barakzai period. The field is densely decorated, leaving little unadorned surface. |
