| Obverse script | Arabic |
| Obverse lettering | لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله |
| Reverse description | Reverse field bearing a two-line Arabic legend in cursive script, identifying the issuing sovereign. The upper line carries the honorific title 'Al-Sultan Al-A'zam' (The Supreme Sultan), while the lower line presents the ruler's name 'Shah Rukh'. The die work is characteristic of early fifteenth-century Timurid mint practice, with hand-engraved letters of moderate depth and slight crowding toward the lower field. As is typical of hammered issues of this period, the legends are contained within an unbordered field, with some flatness at the coin's irregular periphery. |
