Obverse description Central field bears a multi-line Persian legend in nastaliq script, densely arranged across the flan and giving the name and titles of Shah Mahmud. A crescent device is visible toward the upper portion of the die. The overall layout is characteristic of Durrani-period hammered coinage, with the inscriptions boldly struck though somewhat irregular due to the hand-struck technique. The flan shows the typical uneven surface and slight cracking associated with Kashmir Mint production of this era.
