| Reverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription naming the mint, presented within a polylobe or multifoil cartouche, a decorative framing device commonly employed on Timurid silver coinage of this era. Surrounding the cartouche, additional marginal legends in Arabic script occupy the field, partially obscured by the irregular flan edges. A beaded border encircles the entire design, following the contour of the flan. The die work reflects the characteristic bold, somewhat crowded calligraphic style of late fourteenth-century Transoxianian mint production. |
