Beschrijving keerzijde Central square cartouche containing a multi-line Arabic/Persian inscription recording the mint name (Herat) and the date of issue in the Islamic Hijri calendar. The surrounding annular field carries additional marginal legends, likely comprising the Kalima or other pious phrases customary on Timurid and Shaybanid coinage. The script is rendered in Nastaliq style, with the inscriptions carefully arranged within the geometric cartouche. Borders are plain and angular, framing both the central and peripheral inscription bands.

Aanvullende informatie

Timur Muhammad was one of several Shaybanid princes contending for control of Khorasan in the chaotic years following Muhammad Shaybani Khan's death at the Battle of Merv in 1510 — a defeat at the hands of Shah Ismail I that temporarily collapsed Shaybanid power across the region. Herat, the cultural capital of the Timurid world, became a flashpoint for these competing claims. Coins struck by contender princes in this period are administratively irregular; attribution to specific mints and claimants often depends on die analysis rather than explicit legend.
