| Reverse description | Four lines of Kufic Arabic legend filling the field, divided by a horizontal line separating the upper and lower registers. The upper portion bears the Shahada and Prophetic title, while the lower portion carries the title of the prince. The script is bold and angular, consistent with Almoravid hammered coinage convention. The flan edges are irregular due to the hand-struck production technique. |
