| Reverse description | Reverse bears the mint name and regnal year inscribed in Arabic script across the field in multiple registers, in the flowing nasta'liq calligraphic style common to Safavid provincial issues. The mint name Huwayza (حویزه) appears prominently, accompanied by the AH date 1054, referencing the reign of Shah Abbas II. The inscription fills the flan with bold, deeply impressed lettering against a darkened silver field. The coin exhibits the irregular, slightly clipped flan edge typical of hammered provincial Safavid silver of this era. |
