| Obverse description | Central field bearing the Shahada in multiple lines of Arabic Kufic-influenced script: 'La ilaha illa allah muhammad rasul allah,' with the formula of blessing upon the Prophet continuing in the lower registers. The inscription is arranged horizontally across the flan in a bold, angular hand characteristic of early Ilkhanid copper coinage. The legend fills the field without a framing border, consistent with the undated, undifferentiated fals issues of Hulagu Khan's reign. The flan is irregular and shows typical hammered fabric with uneven surfaces and patchy green patination. |
