| Obverse description | Crudely struck irregular copper flan bearing the Arabic mint inscription in two lines within the field. The legend reads 'ضرب مكه' (Struck in Mecca), rendered in bold, roughly engraved Arabic script characteristic of hammered provincial coinage of the Sharifate. The lettering is prominent and occupies the majority of the coin's surface, with the field showing the uneven texture typical of hand-struck issues of this period. |
