| Reverse description | Reverse field displaying a three-line Kufic Arabic inscription arranged within a dotted or plain border, presenting the Shahada or additional royal/religious titulature. The bold, raised Arabic legends are characteristic of the hammered billon jitals struck under the Khwarezmshah dynasty. The irregular flan edges reflect the hand-cut planchet preparation common to Central Asian issues of this era. Slight weakness of strike is visible at the margins, consistent with the type. |
