| Reverse description | Central field featuring a three-line Arabic inscription in prominent Nasta'liq script reading 'Khallad Allah Mulkahu / Zarb al-Mulk / Kabul' (خلد الله ملکه / ضرب الملک / کابل), invoking divine perpetuation of the ruler's kingdom and identifying the Kabul mint. The bold calligraphic characters fill the field almost entirely, framed by a dotted inner border and a plain raised outer rim, consistent with Afsharid hammered coinage conventions. |
