| Reverse description | Central field displays multiple horizontal lines of Naskh Arabic legend within a plain inner circle, referencing the Abbasid caliph al-Mustansir (al-Imam al-Mustansir Billah) as suzerain, a standard formulaic acknowledgement on Ayyubid gold coinage. The text is rendered in high-relief bold Naskh script with decorative dot embellishments separating inscription lines. A continuous marginal legend in Naskh script encircles the outer annular border, enclosed between two concentric linear frames. The overall composition follows the standard Fatimid-derived typology adapted by the Ayyubid dynasty for their gold dinars. |
