Falus - Floral design - Anonymous

Obverse description	Arabic legend in two registers separated by a horizontal bar, occupying the central field of the flan. The upper register contains the mint name Herat, while the lower register bears the AH date 899, with the final digit recut over an earlier '8', indicating a die correction. The script is rendered in a bold, informal naskh hand characteristic of provincial hammered copper coinage of the Timurid period. The irregular flan edge shows typical characteristics of hand-struck production.

Reverse description	Central field occupied by a stylized floral or vegetal ornament rendered in low relief, consisting of a stem with branching elements and multi-lobed foliate motifs arranged symmetrically around a central vertical axis. The design exhibits a latticed or reticulated lower portion suggesting a formal garden or geometric floral composition, a decorative convention common on anonymous Timurid-era copper fulus. The roughly circular, irregular flan is characteristic of hammered production, and the field surface shows natural porosity consistent with copper alloy coinage of this period.
