| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts a lion passant to the right in bold relief, rendered in a stylized manner consistent with Safavid-era copper coinage. The animal's tail curves upward behind its haunches, and dotted pellets are scattered across the field beneath and around the figure, a decorative convention common to Iranian provincial copper issues. The border is composed of a ring of raised beads encircling the entire design. The lion motif served both as a zodiacal symbol for Leo and as an enduring emblem of Iranian sovereignty. The overall strike is characteristic of hammered production, resulting in a slightly irregular flan with patchy green cuprite patination. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a two-line Arabic inscription divided by a horizontal line across the centre of the flan, typical of Safavid provincial falus layout. The upper portion bears the denomination فلوس (Falus) and the lower portion reads ضرب شیراز (struck at Shiraz), identifying the mint of issue. The calligraphy is executed in a bold, somewhat informal naskh style consistent with copper coinage of the period. The field shows pronounced die wear and surface porosity characteristic of hammered copper issues. No regnal year appears on this type, placing it in the undated (ND) category common for Safavid base-metal coinage. |
