| Reverse description | Reverse displays a three-line Arabic Shahada legend arranged horizontally across the central field, reading 'La ilaha illa Allah / Muhammad rasul Allah', enclosed within a dotted border or beaded inner circle as visible on the flan. The inscription is struck in a bold, somewhat angular Kufic script characteristic of eastern Islamic hammered coinage of the early 13th century. The overall die work is irregular, with slight doubling and weakness at the margins consistent with hand-hammered production at a provincial mint. |
