| Reverse description | Central field filled with a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold Thuluth script naming Sultan Kayqubād I with his full regnal titulature: 'Alāʾ al-Dunyā wa-l-Dīn Abū l-Fatḥ Kayqubād ibn Kaykhusraw, and recording the mint city of Konya (Qūniya). Small star-shaped ornaments punctuate the text registers as decorative dividers. The inscription is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the characteristic uneven, hand-struck flan edge of hammered Seljuk silver dirhams visible at the periphery. The die engraving is robust and deeply impressed, consistent with the high-quality silver coinage issued at the Konya mint during the reign of Kayqubād I. |
