| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a bold Arabic inscription in Maghrebi script reading 'Struck in the city of Fes', rendered in multiple lines across the flan. The legends are set within a plain, unbordered field on this crudely struck hammered bronze coin. The irregular flan shows characteristic surface texture of 17th-century Moroccan copper coinage, with slight edge crenulations typical of hand-cut blanks. No figurative design elements are present, the inscription alone serving as the principal device. |
