| Obverse description | Three lines of Arabic script legend contained within a double linear border. The inscription reads the mint formula 'Struck in the city of Fas (Fez)', rendered in a characteristic Saadian epigraphic style. The lettering fills the entire field, with no additional decorative elements. The flan is irregular in shape, typical of hammered copper coinage of the period. |
