| Obverse description | Draped Hellenistic bust facing right, derived from an ancient prototype of Antiochos VII Sidetes, rendered in low relief in the Artuqid imitative tradition. The effigy is set within the central field of the flan, with details of the drapery and facial features partially legible due to the heavily worn and darkly patinated surface. The coin's irregular flan and hammered fabric are characteristic of 12th-century Jaziran copper coinage. |
