| Obverse description | Central circular cartouche enclosing a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold thuluth script, denoting the Azizi monetary authority and the coin's fineness. The cartouche is surrounded by a continuous field of flowing Arabic calligraphic text arranged in curvilinear bands, filling the entire space between the inner circle and the outer border. A fine dotted inner ring separates the central cartouche from the surrounding legend, while a beaded border runs along the outer rim of the coin. The overall design reflects the ornate North African Islamic calligraphic tradition characteristic of Sharifian coinage. |
