| Obverse description | Arabic legend in two horizontal lines occupying the central field of the flan, executed in bold Naskh-style script. The inscription bears the name and titles of the Artuqid ruler Najm al-Din Ghazi I. The field is unadorned, and the coin's irregular flan exhibits the characteristic rough edge of hammered copper coinage of the period. |
