| Obverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic religious legend in bold Naskh script, invoking the Caliph as Commander of the Faithful (Amir al-Muminin) with the phrase acknowledging caliphal authority, accompanied by the AH date 767. The inscription fills the entire flan in the characteristic dense, intertwining style of Tughluq-era epigraphy, with no figurative elements. The die-struck lettering is set within an irregular, slightly raised border. |
