| Reverse description | Reverse field filled with dense Nasta'liq calligraphic inscriptions in multiple registers, typical of Safavid silver coinage of Shah Tahmasp I. The legend includes the royal title and name of the issuing ruler, along with the mint name and regnal year, arranged across the flan in flowing cursive script. The surface shows characteristic uneven relief and flan irregularities consistent with hammered production at a provincial mint. Marginal text extends to the coin's periphery, with portions lost due to the irregular flan edge. |
