| Reverse description | Hammered billon flan with a multi-line Arabic legend in the field, reading 'Tughluq Shah al-Sultan' — the regnal name and title of Ghiyath al-Din Tughluq, founder of the Tughluq dynasty. The inscription is rendered in angular Naskh script, filling the die area without a formal border, consistent with the epigraphic style of early Tughluq coinage struck at the Delhi mint. Die irregularities and flan distortion are characteristic of the hand-hammering technique employed. |
