Beschrijving voorzijde The entire field is occupied by a bold multi-line Arabic calligraphic legend in relief, giving the name and title of Sultan Muhammad Imaaduddeen Iskander, executed in a fluid Thaana-influenced Arabic script. The inscription is arranged in three horizontal registers filling the round flan from rim to rim, with no pictorial elements. A plain inner border frames the calligraphic field. The style is consistent with traditional Maldivian hammered-style coin design, despite the milled production of this pattern.

Aanvullende informatie

Muhammad Imaaduddeen V ruled the Maldives as sultan under British protection, and the early 1900s saw periodic efforts to regularize the archipelago's coinage as the protectorate relationship matured. The lariat denominations in silver were produced in small quantities and the Pn2 reference classification suggests this piece carries pattern or proof status — struck for approval or presentation rather than general release into the atolls' trade economy.

Whether it ever circulated is doubtful. The lariat itself derived from the larín, a fishhook-shaped silver coin once common across the Indian Ocean trade networks.
