| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is organized around a prominent square cartouche inscribed within a circular field, a layout characteristic of Ilkhanid monumental coinage of the early fourteenth century. Within the square, four lines of bold Arabic Thuluth script proclaim the royal titulature: 'The Greatest Sultan, Ghiyath al-Dunya wa'l-Din, Khudabanda Muhammad, may Allah perpetuate his reign.' Below the square cartouche, within the inner marginal zone, the mint and date formula reads 'Struck at Baghdad in the year six and seven hundred' (AH 706 / AD 1306). The outermost band is occupied by Qur'anic verse XXIV, 55, rendered in flowing script, with the entire design framed by a beaded rim. The well-executed calligraphy and the square-within-circle compositional device reflect the refined epigraphic tradition of Ilkhanid silver coinage under Uljaytu. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Uljaytu converted to Twelver Shi'ism around 1309–1310, but presentation pieces of this type predate that shift — issued while he still nominally adhered to Sunni Islam, likely Shafi'i, following his earlier conversion away from the Buddhism of his Mongol upbringing. The theological instability of his reign makes precise dating of religious coin types genuinely contested among specialists.
The "Presentation" designation reflects intended ceremonial rather than commercial use — these were struck for gifting within court contexts, which accounts for the preserved surfaces typically seen on survivors. The Wilkes variant attribution suggests a die anomaly not yet fully reconciled with the primary Diler sequence.
