Reverse description Bold multi-line Arabic inscription occupying the central field, arranged in three horizontal registers within a plain linear circle. The legend reads the pious formula translating as 'favor, success, power' (al-'izz wa-l-iqbal wa-l-dawla or similar). The script is executed in a cursive Kufic or early Naskh style typical of early Golden Horde dirhams, with individual letter strokes clearly defined despite the irregular flan and hammered production technique.
