| Reverse description | Central field displaying a rectangular cartouche framing a three-line Arabic inscription in Naskh script, citing the royal titulature of the Ilkhanid ruler Taghay Timur Khan. The legend acclaims him as 'al-Sultan al-A'zam' (the Greatest Sultan), followed by his name and the invocation 'may God perpetuate his kingdom and sultanate.' A single line of text, likely the mint or date formula, appears below the cartouche in the lower field. The reverse design follows the classic Ilkhanid epigraphic tradition, with the royal name and titles framed within a bordered panel set against a plain, unadorned field. The strike is characteristic of late Ilkhanid hammered gold production, with slightly uneven pressure across the die. |
