| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic legend in bold Naskhi script, reading the name and titles of the ruler. The inscription fills the flan in characteristic Ghurid fashion, arranged in horizontal lines across the field. A simple decorative border element, possibly a rosette or floral device, appears at the lower margin. The flan is irregular and slightly scalloped at the periphery, typical of hammered billon jitals of the period. |
