| Reverse description | The reverse bears the Shahada (Islamic profession of faith) inscribed in three lines in the central field in kufic script: lā ilāha illā Allāh, Muḥammad rasūl Allāh (There is no god but God; Muhammad is the messenger of God). Surrounding the central field in the margin are the names of the four Rightly Guided (Rashidun) Caliphs, arranged clockwise: Abū Bakr, ʿUmar, ʿUthmān, and ʿAlī. This layout follows the standard Ilkhanid reverse type, reflecting Sunni Islamic orthodoxy under Taghay Temur's rule. |
