| Reverse description | The reverse displays a multi-line Kufic Arabic inscription filling the central field within a plain linear border, divided by horizontal lines into registers. The text likely references the ruler Rashid b. Qadim and the mint of Walila, consistent with Idrisid administrative coinage practice. The engraving is crude but legible, reflecting the provincial character of this issue. The flan edges are irregular, a common feature of hammered copper fals of this period. |
