| Reverse description | Central field displays a multi-line Arabic Kufic inscription arranged in horizontal registers within a plain inner circle, recording the name and titles of the ruler Muhammad b. al-Fath and the mint of Sijilmasa. A circular marginal legend in Kufic script runs between the inner circle and the beaded outer border. The overall style conforms to the Abbasid-influenced epigraphic dinar tradition, with no figural imagery, the design consisting entirely of calligraphic religious and dynastic text. |
