| Reverse description | Central field displays multiple horizontal registers of Arabic script in a stacked epigraphic arrangement, recording the name and titles of the Zengid ruler 'Izz al-Din Mas'ud I, along with acknowledgment of Abbasid suzerainty. The inscription is enclosed within a plain inner circle and surrounded by a dotted border, with a circular marginal legend in Arabic script running around the outer periphery. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of hammered medieval Islamic gold coinage, with the legends showing characteristic Zengid calligraphic style. |
