| Obverse description | Crudely struck irregular flan bearing highly stylized Arabic script arranged in two registers across the central field, separated by a horizontal line. The lettering, rendered in a degenerate Kufic style characteristic of Sindhi Qanhari coinage, is heavily schematized and difficult to read individually. The coin's surface shows the typical flat, slightly concave character of hammered small silver fractions, with a plain, undecorated field surrounding the inscription area. |
