| Beschrijving keerzijde | Irregular hammered silver flan bearing three horizontal lines of bold Arabic legends arranged within a plain field, divided by linear borders. The inscription is struck in a somewhat crude epigraphic style typical of Qanhari fractional dirhams, with individual letter forms clearly legible despite the small module and irregular flan. The name Ibrahim and his honorific title Nasir al-Din appear in the lower register, identifying the Ghaznavid ruler. The field surrounding the legend is flat and unadorned, and the flan edges show characteristic irregular clipping. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ibrahim ibn Mas'ud was not the reigning sultan — this small fractional issue was struck under Mahmud of Ghazna, with "Ibrahim" almost certainly referencing a local governor or mint authority rather than the dynastic ruler. The Qanhar mint served the eastern Afghan territories, and these tiny damma fractions circulated in a regional economy where full dirhams were too valuable for everyday transactions. At well under half a gram, they are easily confused with clippings.
