| Obverse description | Central field divided horizontally by a bold line, with multi-line Arabic inscriptions filling both upper and lower registers. The legends, rendered in a fluid nastaliq-style script, record the ruler's name and titles. Decorative floral rosette ornaments punctuate the field at the cardinal points. The entire design is enclosed within a plain linear border, the coin's flan being characteristically irregular in outline. |

| Reverse description | Central field divided horizontally by a bold line, with multi-line Arabic inscriptions in nastaliq-style script occupying the upper and lower registers, recording the mint name, regnal year, and associated formulae. Floral rosette ornaments are placed symmetrically within the field. The inscriptions are contained within a beaded inner circle, itself surrounded by a decorative outer border of repeating bead-and-pellet motifs, all set on a slightly convex, irregularly shaped gold flan. |
