| Obverse description | Three lines of Jawi script occupy the central field of this small hammered gold kupang, rendered in a bold and stylised calligraphic hand characteristic of Kedah sultanate coinage. The uppermost line curves prominently across the upper field, while the middle and lower lines are arranged in a compact, slightly angular fashion filling the flan. The irregular edge of the planchet reflects the hand-struck nature of the piece, and the overall arrangement of the inscription is framed by a plain, undecorated border. |
