| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized heraldic fleur-de-lis with a broad, wide base dominates the central field, flanked at its foot by two small pellets or annulets serving as decorative stops. The upper terminal of the fleur-de-lis is similarly flanked by two pellets. The entire device is contained between two small flanking rings, consistent with the Mamluk heraldic blazon tradition associated with the reign of al-Ashraf Sha'ban II. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Al-Ashraf Sha'ban II came to power in 1363 at roughly ten years old, with the Mamluk amirs effectively running the sultanate behind him. The heraldic fleur-de-lis device on this fals is not borrowed from European iconography but reflects the Mamluk practice of blazoning — a system of heraldic insignia tied to specific court offices, in this case associated with the royal household rather than any particular amir's rank badge. Copper fals of this reign circulated at the lowest level of daily market transactions and were struck in large, loosely supervised quantities.
Sha'ban was murdered by his own amirs in 1377, aged around twenty-four.
