| Obverse description | Hammered billon flan of irregular round form bearing a central Arabic kufic or naskh-style legend arranged in multiple lines within the field, reading the royal titles and name of Sultan 'Ala al-Din Muhammad. The inscription is enclosed within a circular border, with the letters showing the bold, angular characteristics typical of early 13th-century Khwarezmian coinage. The overall style is epigraphic, with no figural elements, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. The flan surface is uneven with slight die wear, and portions of the marginal legend are partially off-flan. |
