| Obverse description | Crude hammered field bearing Arabic kufic or naskh-style inscription arranged in multiple lines occupying the central area. The legend, typical of Shirvanshah coinage, references the ruler's name and titles. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with the inscription partially visible near the edges. Surface shows characteristic dark oxidation patina consistent with copper alloy issues of the medieval Caucasian region. |
