| Reverse description | The reverse displays multiple horizontal registers of Arabic legend in a bold Naskhi script filling the central field, characteristic of Ghaznavid silver coinage of Ibrahim (r. 1059–1099). A small circular cartouche or annulet is visible at the top of the field, flanked by additional inscription elements. The outermost register carries a marginal legend running along the inner rim. The overall epigraphic composition includes the ruler's name and titles, the Islamic profession of faith (Shahada), and likely the mint name Ghazni and regnal year, consistent with standard Ghaznavid dirham typology. |
