Reverse description Central field featuring a decorative rosette or floral ornament composed of stylized petals radiating from a central boss, surrounded by a circular Arabic inscription running along the inner border. The overall design reflects a fusion of Islamic artistic conventions with early Mongol monetary iconography. The reverse layout is characteristic of the broad-flan copper dirhams struck under Genghis Khan, with the inscription band encircling the central motif within a plain outer border. The surface shows typical die-struck irregularities consistent with hammered production methods of the early 13th century AH.
