| Obverse description | Elongated folded wire larin of characteristic fish-hook form, hammered from a billon strip and bent upon itself to create a doubled rod shape tapering to rounded terminals. The outer surface displays faint incuse impressions resulting from the striking process, with irregular surface texturing consistent with hammered billon coinage of the Persian Gulf region. No figural or calligraphic design is clearly discernible on this face due to the nature of the folded larin format. |
