| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the Shi'a Kalima inscribed in Arabic script within a rectangular cartouche, with additional marginal legend encircling the border. The script is executed in a bold, angular style characteristic of Timurid hammered coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, typical of hand-struck issues of this period. Portions of the marginal inscription are partially off-flan due to the small diameter of the coin. |
