| Reverse description | Arabic Kufic legends arranged in two or three horizontal registers across the reverse field, separated by a prominent horizontal bar dividing the die. The script, characteristic of the provincial Sind Arab hammering tradition, bears elements of the mint authority or governor's name attribution associated with Hajjib ibn Salih. The flan is irregular and the strike is typical of small-denomination Qanhari damma issues, with the lettering showing varying depth across the surface due to the hand-hammered production method. |
