| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic Kufic legend arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, presenting the Shahada and the name of the Abbasid Caliph al-Qa'im bi-Amr Allah. The inscription reads in four lines: 'There is no god but God alone, He has no partner; Muhammad is the Messenger of God; al-Qa'im bi-Amr Allah.' The die is struck on an irregular, slightly buckled billon flan with characteristic hammered fabric, displaying dark patination over the raised legends. The field is flat and unadorned, with no decorative border visible on this specimen. |
