Obverse description Central field displays a pointed arch or niche motif enclosing the royal legend in multiple lines of Arabic script, naming the sultan Anushirwan and the mint of Tabriz, with the pious formula 'khallada mulkahu' (may his reign be eternal). The arch is flanked by decorative foliate or arabesque elements typical of Ilkhanid-era die work. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script surrounds the central design, recording the AH date 753. The flan is irregular and slightly clipped at the edges, consistent with hammered silver coinage of the mid-14th century Ilkhanid tradition. The overall style reflects the late Ilkhanid epigraphic idiom, with bold, deeply struck script rendered in a compressed field.
