Reverse description Central field bearing an Arabic mint legend reading 'Darb Siwas' (struck at Siwas), identifying the place of issue in Anatolia. The inscription occupies the central area of the flan, presented in a simple two-word format characteristic of Ilkhanid fals issues from provincial mints. The surface is heavily patinated with green corrosion, and flan irregularities are visible at the edges. The overall execution reflects the utilitarian nature of low-denomination copper coinage struck for local circulation in the Anatolian territories of the Ilkhanate.
