| Reverse description | Reverse displays the Islamic shahada in Arabic script, arranged in multiple horizontal registers filling the entire field of the irregularly shaped flan. The text, reading 'La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammad Rasulullah' (There is no god but God, Muhammad is the Messenger of God), is rendered in a calligraphic style consistent with Anatolian beylik silver coinage of the mid-14th century. The legends are the sole design element, with no border or decorative motifs, reflecting standard Eretna beylik numismatic convention. The strike is typical of hand-hammered production, resulting in slight misalignment of the die relative to the flan edges. |
