| Obverse description | Central floral or foliate motif occupying the field, rendered in a stylized decorative manner characteristic of late 19th-century Afghan provincial copper coinage. The design exhibits crude, irregular relief typical of hand-struck hammered production, with floral branches or petals radiating from a central point. The flan is irregular in shape with a roughly granular border. Strike quality is typical of provincial Herat mint issues of this period. |
