| Obverse lettering | بسم الله الکریم لا اله الا الله محمد رسول الله علی ولی الله اللهم صل علی محمد و علی و الحسن و الحسین و علی و محمد وجعفر و موسی و علی و محمد و علی و محمد بن الحسن محمد (Translation: In the name of Allah the Most Generous, there is no god but Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, Ali is the Friend of Allah; O Allah, bless Muhammad and Ali and al-Hasan and al-Husayn and Ali and Muhammad and Ja'far and Musa and Ali and Muhammad and Ali and Muhammad ibn al-Hasan, Muhammad) |
| Reverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic legend set within a prominent four-lobed or polylobed cartouche framed by an ornamental foliate border, a hallmark of Ilkhanid coin design. The inscription names the ruler Uljaytu Sultan with his full titulature, including the laqabs Ghiyath al-Dunya wa al-Din and Khudabanda, along with the pious formula Khallada Allah Mulkahu. An outer marginal legend band, separated from the central cartouche by a plain inner ring and an outer beaded border, records the mint name Madinat al-Salam Baghdad and additional formulaic phrases. The reverse composition exemplifies the sophisticated calligraphic layout employed on Ilkhanid gold dinars of the early fourteenth century. |
