Obverse description Central field enclosed within a pointed hexafoil cartouche, the outer margin divided into six cloud-shaped lobes characteristic of Ilkhanid decorative convention. Multiple lines of Arabic inscription in bold relief occupy the interior of the hexafoil, presenting the ruler's name and titles in a stylized thuluth-influenced script. The lobed border creates a clear visual separation between the central legend area and the surrounding marginal field. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with hand-hammered production, with legends partially weak at the flan edges.
