Reverse description Central field bears Arabic legend in two lines reading 'al-sultan al-azam', struck in high relief with the characteristic bold strokes of Khalji-period copper coinage. The script displays a compact Naskh style typical of Delhi Sultanate administrative issues, with letters tightly arranged to fill the available field. Patches of cuprite and azurite patination are visible across the surface. The irregular planchet edge reflects the hand-cut flan preparation standard for this denomination and reign.
