Aversbeschreibung The obverse features a central square tablet enclosing the Kalimah (Islamic declaration of faith) in four lines of Kufic script, with the mint name Sijistan and the AH date 132 inscribed within the field below. The square tablet is framed by a double linear border, with the four corners of the surrounding annulus marked by circular pellets. The marginal legend, running around the outer field, contains a quotation from Qur'an 42:23, rendered in elegant early Kufic epigraphy. The overall composition follows the standard epigraphic dirham format established by the Umayyad reform coinage, with all design elements consisting exclusively of Arabic religious and administrative inscriptions and no figural imagery.

Reversbeschreibung The reverse displays a central field bearing Qur'an Surah 112 (Al-Ikhlas) in four lines of Kufic script, affirming the absolute unity and uniqueness of God, enclosed within a double linear border. A single pellet or annulet appears above and below the central text block within the inner field. The marginal legend encircling the outer annulus carries the Mission verse, Qur'an 9:33, proclaiming the prophethood of Muhammad, executed in the same angular early Kufic style as the obverse. The inscription-only composition, devoid of any figural or decorative motifs, is characteristic of the epigraphic reform dirhams of the early Islamic period and the transitional coinage of the Abbasid revolution.
