| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Arabic inscription in Naskh script filling the field, containing the royal titulature of Sultan al-Zahir Jaqmaq. The legends are arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, with individual words and letter strokes clearly separated though partially worn from circulation. The text likely includes elements of the sultan's honorific titles and mint or regnal formula. The flan is irregular and slightly clipped at the edges, as is characteristic of Mamluk hammered fals coinage of the Damascus mint. |
