| Reverse description | The reverse bears a three-line Arabic inscription in the field, reading the mint formula and regnal year. At the top, a small ornamental device or letter denotes the regnal year marker (here ع, indicating year twelve of the reign). The central lines carry the mint name Misr (Egypt) in bold, stylised thuluth script. The Hijri date 1168 appears in the lower field, referencing the year of striking. The inscription is set within the plain round flan, with no border decoration, characteristic of Egyptian para coinage of this period. |
