Reverse description Central field bears a three-line Persian nastaliq legend in high relief, recording the mint name and the regnal year in abjad notation, set within an oval cartouche delineated by an incised line. A crescent device appears prominently at the upper left of the legend, a hallmark feature of Qajar gold coinage of this period. The field around the cartouche is richly decorated with intertwining floral scrollwork, leafy branches, and pellet ornaments, maintaining stylistic continuity with the obverse. The whole design is enclosed within a raised beaded border consistent with the hammered production technique of the Hamadan mint.
