Reverse description Central field contains a multi-line Arabic inscription in nasta'liq script incorporating the Safavid royal titulature and the name of Shah Tahmasp I, along with the mint name Kirman and the regnal year 949 AH. The text is arranged in horizontal bands filling the flan, with the mint and date typically appearing in the lower registers. A dotted or linear border frames the marginal legend, which may include Shi'a invocations. The overall execution is consistent with provincial Kirman mint production under the Third Western Standard, showing characteristic irregularities in flan shape and strike depth.
