| Reverse description | The reverse presents a multi-line Arabic legend within a central cartouche or lobed frame, with the mint name and additional dynastic or religious formulae arranged in horizontal registers. An upper decorative element, possibly a floral or geometric motif, surmounts the central inscription panel. The legend references the Tabriz mint and associated regnal dating, executed in the same bold hammered calligraphic style as the obverse. Marginal inscriptions encircle the central device, though partially off-flan due to the irregular planchet. The field retains good relief detail consistent with a well-struck Timurid tanka. |
