| Obverse description | Hammered copper flan bearing a multi-line Arabic legend disposed across the field in three horizontal registers, executed in a bold, somewhat cursive Tughra-influenced script characteristic of the Jaunpur Sultanate coinage. The inscriptions, likely referencing the ruler's name and titles, fill the entire die area with no border or decorative framing. The strike is uneven, consistent with hand-hammered production, and the flan edge is notably irregular. The overall calligraphic style reflects the epigraphic tradition common to late Sharqi dynasty copper issues. |
