| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic religious inscription arranged in horizontal bands within a plain inner circle. The text, executed in Kufic script, contains the Islamic profession of faith (shahada). A circular marginal legend in Arabic Kufic script runs between the inner circle and the beaded outer border, which frames the entire design. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven in thickness, characteristic of hammered gold coinage of the period. |
