| Reverse description | Five-line Arabic kufic-style legend disposed across the full field of the coin, reading the royal titulature of Sultan Muhammad II. The inscription fills the die in a stacked arrangement without a surrounding border frame, consistent with the epigraphic style of Ghurid and early Khwarazmian copper jitals. The legends are boldly struck but partially weak at the flan edges due to the irregular planchet, and show the characteristic squared naskh forms employed on base-metal coinage of this period. |
