Obverse description Central field entirely occupied by a four-line Arabic legend giving the sultan's titles and name, arranged within a plain linear frame. The inscription reads 'Sultan of the Two Lands and Khagan of the Two Seas, Sultan Mustafa Khan, may his victory be glorious.' The border is decorated with a continuous leaf-and-bead pattern running around the full circumference, lending a refined ornamental frame to the typographic composition.
