Obverse description Central field dominated by the elaborate Ottoman-style toughra of Caliph Abdullah ibn Muhammad, rendered in calligraphic Arabic script with interlacing strokes and flourishes. The word 'Maqbul' appears below the toughra, serving as a mint or approval mark. The entire central device is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, itself surrounded by a decorative border of alternating stars and crescents.
