Reverse description Central field displays a three-line Arabic inscription recording the mint city and Hijri date, in bold calligraphic script. The text reads ضرب في تونس followed by the Hijri year (varying by issue, e.g. ؜ቢቦቱ for 1269 AH). The inscription is framed by an elegant wreath of olive or laurel branches tied at the base with a decorative floral and interlace knot motif, mirroring the obverse design. Small pellets or berries are interspersed among the branch foliage, adding ornamental detail to the border. The reverse composition is uniform across the series, with only the date line varying between issues.
