| Reverse description | Central field displays a three-line Kufic Arabic inscription identifying the mint as al-Urdunn (Jordan), arranged within a plain linear border consistent with Umayyad provincial fals coinage. The inscription names the Prophet Muhammad as the Messenger of God and specifies the mint name 'بالاردن' in the lower line, a standard formula for this series. The script is angular early Kufic, neatly laid out despite the irregularity of the hammered flan. No additional symbols or decorative elements are present in the field. The reverse border mirrors the obverse with a double linear circle enclosing the inscriptional design. |
