Reverse description Central field displaying the Islamic profession of faith (Shahada) in two lines of Arabic naskh script: 'La ilaha illa Allah / Muhammad rasul Allah' (There is no god but God / Muhammad is the messenger of God). The legend fills the irregular flan with no additional ornamental borders, consistent with the austere calligraphic tradition of Bukharan hammered silver coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. The strike is moderately sharp with typical flan irregularities.
