| Reverse description | Three horizontal bands of Persian calligraphic legend in nasta'liq script occupy the central field, containing the Shi'a profession of faith: 'There is no god but God / Muhammad is the Messenger of God / Ali is the Friend of God.' A marginal legend surrounding the field enumerates the twelve Shi'a Imams by name. The overall composition is typical of Safavid-derived Afsharid religious coinage, emphasizing Twelver Shi'a doctrine. |
