Reverse description Hammered copper reverse bearing a bold multi-line Arabic inscription in flowing naskh script, occupying the majority of the flan. The legend is struck in high relief against a flat, undecorated field, with the text reading across the coin in typical Timurid administrative style. The strike is slightly off-centre, a common characteristic of hand-struck Central Asian fulus of this period. The surface carries a dark green-brown patina with areas of corrosion, and the flan edges remain irregular. No border or decorative frame is present.
