Beschrijving keerzijde Central field contains a multi-line Arabic Kufic inscription arranged in horizontal registers within an inner circle, bearing the name of the Abbasid caliph and the Samanid amir Nasr II b. Ahmad. A marginal legend in Kufic script encircles the outer border, recording the mint name and AH date of issue, consistent with standard Samanid fals typology. The die engraving is bold but somewhat irregular in execution, reflecting the varied output of provincial Transoxanian mints. Surface patination is brown to dark brown with areas of encrustation typical of base-metal Islamic coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Nasr II's reign marked the cultural apex of Samanid power — he patronized both Rudaki, widely considered the father of Persian poetry, and the young Ibn Sina received his early education under court scholars during this period. The dynasty's administrative reach across Khurasan and Transoxiana was extensive, but copper fals were purely local instruments, struck under regional authority rather than centralized mint control, which explains the considerable variation in fabric and module across surviving specimens.
