| Reverse description | Central field displaying four horizontal lines of Kufic Arabic script arranged symmetrically within a single-line inner circle. The uppermost line reads 'لله' (For God), followed by 'محمد رسول الله' (Muhammad is the Messenger of God), then the Abbasid caliph's honorific title 'المعتضد بالله' (Al-Mu'tadid Billah), identifying the reigning Abbasid caliph. The surrounding marginal legend contains the Quranic verse (Sura 9:33) attesting to the divine mission of the Prophet. The flan is struck on an irregular planchet with some weakness at the periphery, typical of late 3rd-century AH provincial Abbasid dirhams. |
