| Reverse description | Hammered silver field bearing a multi-line Arabic mint and date inscription arranged in stacked horizontal registers. The legend records the mint name Novaberda (Novo Brdo) along with the regnal years 974–982 AH, preceded by the pious invocation 'Azza Nasruhu' (May his victory be glorified). The script is angular and compressed, consistent with provincial Ottoman die-cutting practice. No decorative borders or ornamental devices are present, the entire flan surface being devoted to the epigraphic content. Strike is characteristically uneven, with some areas of weakness attributable to the hand-hammered technique. |
