Reverse description Central field bearing the AH date numerals arranged prominently within a square cartouche with decorative framing, reading '1210' (AH). The square is surrounded by a circular border composed of pellets or rope-like ornamental elements, with additional marginal decorative devices visible in the outer field. The reverse layout follows the standard second-type format established for Hisham-era Moroccan dirhams, with the regnal year as the primary design element. The flan exhibits the typical irregular, slightly clipped edges of a hammered coin produced at the Asfi (Safi) mint. Overall execution is bold, with well-struck numerals despite minor surface wear.
