| Obverse description | Irregular hammered flan bearing a two-line Arabic inscription in bold, deeply struck Naskh script occupying the entire field. The upper register reads 'Ali' (علي) and the lower register reads 'Nawruz' (نوروز), referencing the amir Nawruz who governed Sijistan under Chagatai authority. The legends are rendered in large, prominent characters with no border or decorative frame, characteristic of the crude jital coinage of the eastern Islamic world in this period. |
