| Reverse description | Hammered reverse displaying a multi-line Arabic inscription in Naskh script arranged in horizontal registers across the field, invoking the Abbasid Caliph: 'al-Khalifa Abu Abd Allah khulidat khilafatuhu' (the Caliph Abu Abd Allah, may his caliphate endure). The legend affirms the sultan's nominal allegiance to the Abbasid Caliphate, a standard formula on Delhi Sultanate coinage of this period. The die is slightly off-center, consistent with hand-struck production. |
