| Reverse description | The reverse field is dominated by a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, naming the four Rightly Guided Caliphs: Abu Bakr, Uthman, Umar, and Ali. The text is rendered in a cursive Naskh-style Arabic script typical of Ilkhanid provincial copper issues. The legend occupies the majority of the coin's surface, with a partial border visible at the periphery. Strike pressure is uneven, resulting in areas of weakness toward the edges of the irregular flan. The patination is consistent with that of the obverse, suggesting extended circulation or burial. |
