| Obverse description | Hammered gold flan bearing a prominent calligraphic inscription in Persian nastaliq script, boldly rendered across the entire field in multiple registers. The legend reads the royal titulature of Fat'h Ali Shah Qajar together with the AH date 1214, executed in the flowing, cursive nastaliq style characteristic of early Qajar coinage. The script fills the flan to the edges, with individual letterforms of substantial relief displaying the vigorous, hand-engraved quality typical of hammered Iranian gold issues. The irregular flan edge reflects the hand-struck production method of the period. |
