Beschrijving keerzijde Central field displays a multi-line Kufic Arabic inscription within a plain inner circle, reading 'Bismi Allāh / ḍuriba bi-Bardhaʿa / sana [Year]' (In the name of God / struck at Barda'a / year [AH date]), identifying the mint and regnal year of issue. The field lettering is rendered in the angular Kufic script standard on early Abbasid provincial copper coinage. A circular marginal legend encircles the inner field, reading 'amara Allāhu bil-wafāʾ wal-ʿadl' (God has commanded faithfulness and justice), a pious formula characteristic of Abbasid fulus of this period. The irregular flan shows the typical characteristics of hand-struck provincial copper coinage, with uneven edges and surface oxidation. No decorative motifs or symbols are present beyond the epigraphic programme.

Aanvullende informatie

Barda'a, situated in Arran (modern Azerbaijan), functioned as one of the major administrative centers of the Caucasus under Abbasid provincial governance, and its mint produced copper fals for purely local transactional needs — the silver dirham network simply didn't reach down to everyday market exchange. Anonymous copper of this type carries no caliph's name, which places attribution almost entirely on mint name and typology. The Zeno reference here is the practical anchor.
