Obverse description Central field occupied by a dense, flowing Arabic calligraphic inscription in multiple lines, executed in a robust naskh-influenced hand typical of Anatolian beylicate coinage. The Shahada (Islamic declaration of faith) is inscribed in two lines across the field. The legend is enclosed within a beaded circular border, the flan showing characteristic irregular edges and surface texture resulting from the hammered striking technique.
