| Reverse description | Reverse field displays multiple lines of Arabic script legend densely filling the flan, with the mint name Burhanabad and date inscriptions arranged in registers. The hammered strike has produced characteristic uneven depth across the surface, with areas of weakness and overlap typical of Ahmadnagar sultanate copper coinage. The flan exhibits a blue-green patina over the copper substrate, with irregular scalloped edges resulting from the hand-striking process. |
