Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse displays a bold, multi-line calligraphic legend in flowing Nasta'liq script, occupying the entire field and reading the royal declaration of Shahrukh as servant of the shrine of Reza. The inscription is arranged in sweeping diagonal bands characteristic of Afsharid hammered coinage, with decorative dot clusters and floral spray motifs interspersed in the field. The inner field is bounded by a beaded border running along the coin's irregular periphery. The artistic execution reflects the refined Persian calligraphic tradition employed on Afsharid silver rupees of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a compact mint legend enclosed within a lobed, ogival cartouche in the centre of an otherwise plain, flat field. The Arabic inscription, arranged in two lines, reads 'Zarb Dar al-Saltana Qazvin' (struck at the seat of sovereignty, Qazvin), identifying the issuing mint. The cartouche is surmounted by a pointed arch finial and terminates in a curved base, typical of Afsharid mint-mark cartouche design. The surrounding field is unadorned and exhibits characteristic hammer-struck surface texture. The coin's irregular flan shape and flan splits are consistent with hand-struck production practices of the mid-eighteenth century.
