| Reverse description | Five lines intersect across the field, forming a five-pointed star at the center of the coin. Arabic legends occupy the spaces between the star's points, while additional Arabic inscriptions appear in the outer segments, though these peripheral legends are almost invariably off the planchet due to the irregular flan size. The reverse design follows the conventions of contemporary Islamic coinage adapted for Georgian royal use during the reign of Demetrius I. |
