| Reverse description | Central field displays three lines of Arabic text within a plain inner circle, identifying the caliph al-Mu'tadid and bearing the Abbasid mint and date formulae in the traditional epigraphic style. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script surrounds the inner circle, separated by a plain border. The reverse follows the standard Abbasid dinar format with no figural imagery, relying entirely on Kufic-style calligraphy. The strike is moderately well-centered on an irregular hammered flan consistent with the period. |
