Reverse description Central field displaying a four-line Arabic inscription in Kufic-influenced script citing the Abbasid Caliph al-Nasir li-Din Allah, Commander of the Faithful, as overlord — a standard acknowledgment of Abbasid suzerainty on Seljuk of Rum coinage. The reverse is framed by a partial beaded border visible along portions of the rim, as is typical for this series. The irregular flan and variable strike depth are consistent with hammered copper fals of the period, with areas of flat strike due to the manufacturing technique.
