Reverse description Hammered reverse displaying a multi-line Arabic religious legend in nasta'liq script across the full field, likely containing the Shi'a or Sunni kalima together with the mint and regnal year. The script is bold and deeply struck, with the lines arranged horizontally across the flan. The irregular flan edges and slightly uneven strike are consistent with hand-hammered Central Asian tilla coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. No formal border or decorative frame is present.
