Obverse description Central field occupied by a multi-line Persian legend in Naskh-influenced script, crudely rendered in the manner typical of Mongol-period billon jitals struck at Ghazna. The inscription reads 'Be govvat-e aferidegar-e alam' (By the Power of the Creator of the World), distributed across the flan in horizontal registers. The lettering is bold and raised in relief, with the irregular flan edges characteristic of hand-cut blanks. Marginal inscription or decorative border elements partially visible around the periphery.
