Reverse description Reverse displays a multi-line Persian royal titulature inscription in nastaʿlīq script, densely filling the field of the irregularly shaped hammered flan. The legend reads 'Al-Sultan Fath Ali Shah Qajar' followed by the AH date 1213, proclaiming the full royal title of Fath Ali Shah and the regnal year. The bold, deeply incised lettering is characteristic of early Qajar hammered gold issues, with the AH date prominently placed in the lower portion of the field. The overall style reflects the calligraphic traditions of Iranian mint production of the late eighteenth century.
