| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in Kufic script arranged in horizontal registers, recording the name of the Abbasid caliph and the Ghaznavid ruler Mawdud, along with the mint and date formulae. An inner linear border encloses the central legends, while a circular marginal inscription runs along the outer border. The coin conforms to the standard Ghaznavid reverse type, with the ruler's name and titles prominently displayed in keeping with Islamic numismatic convention. The strike is typical of hammered production, resulting in a slightly irregular flan with well-raised lettering. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mawdud inherited the Ghaznavid sultanate following the murder of his father Mas'ud I at the hands of his own troops after the catastrophic defeat at Dandanaqan in 1040 — the battle that effectively handed Khorasan to the Seljuks and permanently contracted Ghaznavid power eastward toward the Punjab. His coinage reflects a dynasty in damage control, issuing silver from mints now operating well outside their former imperial reach.
