Obverse description Central field contains a multi-line Arabic religious inscription within a circular border of raised dots. The Shahada or a formulaic Islamic invocation is rendered in bold Naskh script across several lines, occupying the majority of the coin's face. A secondary marginal legend in Arabic script runs around the inner border, partially legible due to the irregular flan. The overall style is characteristic of Injuid hammered silver coinage, with deeply struck lettering on an uneven, slightly convex field.
