| Reverse description | Central field displays a stylized symbol, possibly a simplified mihrab or architectural motif, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. Surrounding this central device is a Kufic Arabic marginal legend, likely containing the mint name al-Ramla and a religious formula. The lettering is boldly struck but somewhat irregular due to the hand-hammered flan. The reverse layout is consistent with anonymous Umayyad provincial fals of the early eighth century, emphasizing epigraphic content in accordance with the post-696 reform aesthetic. |
