| Obverse description | Arabic legend arranged in multiple horizontal lines across the field, bearing the laqab and regnal title of Sultan Nasir al-Din, with the AH date 891 partially rendered — notably with the digit 8 absent, rendering only the numerals ٩١ visible in the field. The script is rendered in a bold, angular style typical of Gujarati sultanate copper coinage. The flan is thick and irregular, with the legend filling the available die area without a formal border. |

| Reverse description | Arabic legend arranged in multiple horizontal lines across the field, bearing the name and title of Mahmud Shah I within a plain rectangular cartouche. The inscription is struck in a bold, somewhat crude style characteristic of hammered copper issues of the Gujarat Sultanate. The flan edges are uneven, and a faint linear border frames the central inscription area. The reverse field shows typical die wear consistent with mass-produced copper circulation coinage of the period. |
