Obverse description Central field bears a multi-line Arabic religious legend in Naskh script, reading the Shahada and the name of Ghazan Mahmud Khan, arranged in horizontal registers. The inscription is enclosed within a geometric or floral border typical of post-reform Ilkhanid coinage. The strike is characteristic of hammered production, resulting in a slightly irregular flan with moderate relief. The field shows the bold, angular script style associated with the monetary reform of 694 AH introduced by Ghazan Khan.

Obverse lettering لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله غازان محمود
