Reverse description The reverse displays a central Arabic legend arranged within a circular cartouche or lobed frame, with the mint name and denomination inscription filling the field. The script is executed in a bold, somewhat cursive style consistent with Safavid provincial copper coinage. A dotted border encircles the design along the irregular flan edge. The overall composition is typical of anonymous local falus issues struck at the Rasht mint during the Safavid period.
