Obverse description Hammered billon tanka struck in the Gujarat Standard type, displaying multiple lines of Arabic script in the Naskh style arranged across the irregular round flan. The legend occupies the entire obverse field, divided by a horizontal line into upper and lower registers, with the royal titulature of Sultan Shams-ud-din Muzaffar Shah II rendered in deeply struck Arabic calligraphy. The flan shows characteristic irregularity typical of hand-struck sultanate coinage of the period.
