| Obverse description | A stylized duck depicted in profile within a circular border, facing either right or left depending on die variety. The bird is rendered in low relief in a simplified, provincial artistic style characteristic of early Umayyad copper coinage. The field surrounding the figure is plain, and the flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-struck hammered production of the period. |
