| Reverse description | Irregular flan with the central field bearing a bold Arabic Kufic inscription reading 'الحمد لله' (Praise be to God), the letters struck in relatively high relief against the darkly patinated copper field. The script is rendered in the angular Kufic style characteristic of early Abbasid anonymous copper coinage, with strokes showing moderate clarity despite the worn state of the flan. The edge is uneven and clipped in places, typical of hand-struck Islamic fals of the period. No mint name, caliph's name, or regnal date appears on this side. |
