| Obverse description | Hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in raised relief, arranged across three horizontal registers within the round field. The legend reads in classical Arabic script naming the honored Sultan Muhammad Imad al-Din and recording the mint city of Malé. The lettering is bold and deeply struck in the traditional Islamic calligraphic style characteristic of Maldivian coinage of this period. The field shows the rough, slightly irregular surface typical of hand-struck rupees produced at the Malé Mint. No figurative imagery is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic convention. |
