Obverse description Central field dominated by bold Arabic calligraphy in the nasta'liq style, bearing the mint name and date inscription. The legend reads 'Zarb Dar al-Saltana Tabriz 1162' (AH), identifying the Tabriz mint as the seat of sovereignty. A small rosette or pellet ornament is visible in the upper left field. The lettering is deeply struck in high relief against a flat, unadorned field, typical of Afsharid-period hammered coinage. The overall die is slightly irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck production of the period.
