| Obverse lettering | al-sultan al-azam ala` al-dunya wa`l din |
| Reverse description | Monolingual Arabic legend disposed in multiple lines across the reverse field, naming the sultan in full regal style. The inscription is struck in the same bold Naskh hand as the obverse, with the text distributed across the available flan space. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular outline and uneven relief of hammered coinage produced at the Delhi Sultanate mint during the reign of Ala al-Din Muhammad Shah. No mint name or date appears on the reverse. The overall style is consistent with the anonymous, epigraphic coinage tradition of the early fourteenth-century Sultanate. |
