| Reverse description | Central field displays a multi-line Arabic inscription in Kufic script arranged in horizontal registers within a double linear border, conveying a religious formula referencing the Prophet Muhammad and the Abbasid dynasty. A continuous marginal legend in Kufic Arabic encircles the field along the periphery, separated by a beaded or dotted inner border. The reverse, like the obverse, is entirely epigraphic with no figural imagery, adhering strictly to the aniconic coinage reform established under the Umayyad Caliph Abd al-Malik and continued by the Abbasids. The mint name and regnal year would typically appear within the central inscription field. |
