| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a bold multi-line Arabic Kufic-style inscription arranged within a decorative border or cartouche, giving the coin a distinct architectural appearance. The legend records the name and titles of Sultan Mas'ud ibn Kilij Arslan, ruler of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum. Surrounding the inscription are small decorative elements in the field, consistent with the typology of Album 1192. The strike is characteristic of hammered copper production, with moderate die alignment and slight flan irregularity typical of medieval Anatolian mints. |
