| Obverse description | The obverse field bears a bold Arabic inscription in raised relief reading "Ya Sahib Al-Zaman" (یا صاحب الزمان), an honorific epithet of the Twelfth Imam in Shia Islam meaning "O Master of Time". The legend is rendered in a large, flowing Naskh script filling the entire field, with a raised border rim encircling the design. |
