| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by the Asomtavruli letter Ⴂ ('G'), the initial of King George III, set within an ornate rectilinear framework composed primarily of straight lines and geometric borders. Stylized Arabic inscription is interspersed within the decorative framework, reading 'malik al-muluk' (King of Kings), reflecting the bilingual Georgian-Arabic administrative tradition of the medieval Georgian kingdom. The overall design is angular and architectonic in character, typical of the hammered copper coinage of the Georgian Bagratid dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
George III of Georgia ruled during a period of significant Seljuk pressure on the Caucasus, and Georgian copper coinage of this reign reflects the administrative fragmentation that came with it — irregular flans, inconsistent weight standards, and die alignment that varied workshop to workshop. The "Type 1" designation covers considerable internal variety. No centralized mint authority imposed uniformity, and these coins circulated across a kingdom still consolidating territory won back from the Seljuks earlier in the century.
