Reverse description Central square field bearing multiple horizontal lines of Arabic inscriptions in a similar Kufic-derived style, containing religious formulae and the mint or ruler attribution. A linear square border frames the central text panel, itself enclosed within a circular marginal legend in Arabic script. The coin's peripheral edge displays a beaded circle, consistent with the Nasrid Granadan dinar tradition. The reverse composition closely mirrors the obverse in its epigraphic layout, a hallmark of Andalusian Islamic gold coinage of the period.
