| Obverse description | Central crescent motif rendered in a stylized, swirling design occupying the primary field, surrounded by radiating decorative elements arranged symmetrically within a beaded or rope border. The design exhibits the characteristic angular abstraction of early Umayyad provincial coinage, with no figural representation, consistent with the aniconic reform coinage of the period. The field shows traces of additional geometric patterning typical of the al-Ramla mint issues. |
