Reverse description Central field contains the Islamic profession of faith (kalima) arranged in three lines of Arabic naskh script within an ornamented border. A date formula is positioned between the first and second lines of the kalima, incorporating the month name, the word سنه ('year'), and the year written out in Arabic verbal form (e.g., AH 672 expressed as 'two seventy six-hundred'). The arrangement follows the standard anonymous Ilkhanid Tiflis type, with the text reading right to left. The overall design is enclosed within a decorative geometric or beaded border typical of the series.
