| Obverse description | The obverse presents bold Arabic calligraphic inscriptions in the Naskh script, struck in high relief across the irregular flan. The field is divided by horizontal bands bearing the royal name and epithet of Sulaiman Shah, rendered in large, sweeping strokes characteristic of Durrani-era hammered coinage. The legend reads across multiple registers, with decorative pellet borders framing the inscriptions. The surface shows the typical irregular hammered strike of eighteenth-century Kashmir mint production, with portions of the legend occasionally running off the flan edge. |
