| Obverse description | Epigraphic type with no figurative imagery, the field occupied entirely by a three-line Arabic inscription arranged horizontally within a plain circular border. The legends are struck in bold naskh script characteristic of early Sayyid dynasty coinage, reading 'fi ahd / al-sultan / al-a'zam' (in the reign of / the Sultan / the Most Exalted). The die work is typical of hammered billon tanka production at the Delhi mint, with slightly uneven strike and natural flan irregularities at the periphery. |
