| Reverse description | The reverse bears a prominent religious aphorism rendered in Arabic script, conveying the Sufi moral maxim that translates as 'the world is carrion and the seekers thereof are dogs.' The inscription is centrally placed within the field and is framed by a decorative border consistent with the floral arabesque style found on the obverse. The script is executed in a bold, angular hand typical of Afghan hammered gold coinage of the period. |
