The inscription is rendered in high-relief hammered style consistent with Qajar provincial mint practice. A partial dotted border traces the upper periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The reverse layout follows the standard Type B format for Nasir al-Din Shah quarter-qiran issues struck at Tehran. |
