| Obverse description | Central square cartouche enclosing a multi-line Arabic/Persian inscription bearing the ruler's name and titles, executed in Nastaliq script. The surrounding annular field contains additional calligraphic legends, likely comprising pious formulae or further honorific titulature. The overall layout follows the standard Timurid-period die arrangement, with bold angular borders framing the central panel. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, consistent with hand-struck hammered coinage of the period. |
