| Reverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in horizontal registers within a beaded inner border, citing the names and titles of Mongke Khan as Supreme Khan and Hulagu Khan as Ilkhan. The legends are rendered in bold naskh script with clearly separated lines, surrounded by a beaded circle and an outer marginal legend in Arabic encircling the field. The flan is irregular and shows characteristic flan splits and edge cracks typical of hammered Ilkhanid dirhams, with the beaded border well preserved on the lower half. The overall design conforms to the standard Ilkhanid epigraphic type with no figural imagery, relying entirely on calligraphic inscription for its visual program. |
