| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse presents the Islamic profession of faith (Shahada) inscribed in Kufic Arabic script across the field, arranged in multiple horizontal lines divided by a ruled bar. The legend reads the first part of the Shahada affirming the oneness of God. The flan is small, irregular, and roughly circular, characteristic of hammered Ghaznavid fractional silver coinage. Peripheral legends are partially visible around the rim, though the irregular flan causes clipping of the outer inscription. The die workmanship reflects the compact, angular Kufic style typical of early 11th-century eastern Islamic mints. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays multi-line Kufic Arabic inscriptions arranged in horizontal registers separated by a ruled bar across the center of the field. The legend proclaims the prophethood of Muhammad, asserts that sovereignty belongs to God, and names the Ghaznavid ruler Mahmud. The script is angular Kufic, densely packed within the small flan, with portions of the marginal legend lost to the irregular, clipped flan edges. The coin exhibits the typical characteristics of hammered Ghaznavid fractional silver issues, with an uneven surface and slight die misalignment consistent with hand-struck production. |
