| Reverse description | Central square panel bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in raised Naskh script recording the name and titles of the issuing sultan, Rukn al-Din Firuz, within a framed square border. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script encircles the square panel along the periphery of the flan. The reverse follows the same anionic, text-only design convention as the obverse, characteristic of early Sultanate silver coinage. The strike is bold though uneven, with some weakness at the edges due to the hammered technique. |
