| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in three or four horizontal lines across the central field, enclosed within a partial beaded border. The legend contains the name and titles of Sultan 'Ala al-Din Muhammad, Sultan of the Khwarazmian Empire, in a bold Kufic-influenced script typical of early 13th-century eastern Islamic bronze coinage. The heavily worn surfaces reflect the coin's extensive circulation in the bazaars of Khurasan and Transoxiana. |
