| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan of irregular round form bearing Arabic script legend disposed in two registers separated by a horizontal line across the field. The upper register features a partial inscription in Naskh-style calligraphy, with a crescent-like character visible to the left. The lower register carries the continuation of the legend in bold, deeply struck strokes. The coin exhibits characteristic Mughal hammered fabric with an uneven surface and naturalpatina consistent with extended circulation. |

| Reverse description | Reverse of hammered copper flan displaying a bold Arabic inscription in the field, with script elements arranged informally owing to the irregular planchet. A prominent looping character dominates the left portion of the field, with additional strokes extending toward the right. The surface shows the typical rough, uneven texture of Mughal small copper coinage, with areas of green cuprite patina interspersed across the brown-red copper ground. |
