| Reverse description | Hammered irregular flan displaying a two-line Arabic mint and date legend across the field, reading 'Struck in Algeria' above and the Hijri year below, with the date varying according to the year of issue. The inscription is boldly struck in a characteristically dense Ottoman-Maghrebi calligraphic style. A beaded border surrounds the legend. The flan exhibits typical irregularity and slight off-center striking consistent with the hammered production methods of the Algiers Mint during this period. |
