| Obverse description | Central field occupied by three horizontal lines of Kufic Arabic legend reading the Shahada and the ruler's name, struck on a small, irregularly shaped silver flan typical of Almoravid hammered coinage. The inscription is arranged within a plain linear border, with the text filling the entire die area. The surfaces display the characteristic rough, slightly convex relief of hand-struck North African and Andalusian qirats of this period. No mint name or date is present, consistent with the anonymous workshop variety. |
