| Obverse description | Hammered gold flan with a beaded border encircling the entire coin. Within the field, a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold thuluth script presents the full titulature of Sultan Suleiman I, identified as son of Selim Khan, with an invocation for the perpetuation of his reign. The mint name and the accession year 926 AH appear in the lower portion of the legend. The irregular flan results in partial legend visible depending on the individual specimen. |
