| Reverse description | Reverse impression similarly derived from a round şahi coin die, applied to the opposite face of the bent wire flan. Partial Arabic inscription is discernible, including the AH regnal year 982, corresponding to 1574 CE. The legend is fragmentary across all known specimens, with only isolated characters clearly readable. The irregular wire-blank surface further obscures fine detail. |
